Frequently asked questions

About this service

  • Can you add my pet to a family photo?

    Yes. Send the family photo and a clear photo of your pet, ideally taken from a similar angle and in similar light. The editor places the pet in the scene and matches light, scale and shadow by hand.

  • Can you combine several pets from different photos?

    Yes. Send a photo of each pet and tell us how you'd like them arranged. Each one is cut out and matched to the same light, so they look like they were photographed together. Each photo you send is one credit, so three pets from three photos is 3 credits.

  • Can you remove a leash or collar?

    Yes. The leash or collar is removed and the fur and body behind it rebuilt by hand, so there is no gap or smudge.

  • Will the fur look natural around the edges?

    Yes. Fur is one of the hardest things to cut out, and the editor does it by hand, keeping the fine hairs and soft edges rather than leaving a hard outline.

  • Can you swap in a better shot of my dog or cat?

    Yes. If one photo has the perfect pose and another the perfect expression, send both and tell us what to take from each.

Ordering with Tucia

  • Is my photo edited by a real person or by AI?

    By a real person. Every photo is assigned to a professional human editor who does the work by hand, and a human checks the result before delivery. AI tools are used only for narrow helper steps, never as a one-click filter.

  • How much does it cost?

    Pricing is per photo, in credits, from 1 credit (US$8). The price and delivery time shown at checkout are an estimate. If your edit turns out to need more work than that, the editor pauses that photo and messages you with the extra amount, and nothing more is charged unless you agree. If you decline, that part is dropped and refunded.

  • How long does it take?

    Most orders are back within 24 hours; larger batches take longer, and you'll see an estimate at checkout. There is no paid rush option. If you have a deadline, say so in your order notes and we'll do our best to fit it in, though we can't guarantee a date.

  • What if I'm not happy with the result?

    Ask for changes: revisions are free for 14 days after delivery. They need to follow your original instructions (a new direction counts as a new order). If it still doesn't work out, you get a full refund. The full terms are in our revision policy.

  • Are my photos kept private?

    Yes. We never share your photos or show them publicly, and we never use them for marketing. A few editing steps rely on third-party AI tools — here is exactly which ones, and what we can and can't guarantee. More in our Privacy Policy.

    Ask us before you order: contact us.
