Frequently asked questions

What’s the difference between Standard, Advanced, and Expert editing?
Arrow icon

Standard covers the basics: white balance, lens correction and exposure adjustment, straight lines, sky replacement, blurring of faces and licence plates. Advanced adds practical fixes: turning lights on, repairing or adding green grass, filling empty pools, removing cords, garden hoses, trash bins, small objects, cars and signs, eliminating wrinkles in bed sheets. Expert handles more complex fixes: removing big furniture pieces, partial interior tidying, rebuilding pools, partial floor improvement, floor replacement, roof cleaning, partial exterior tidying. To fully empty a room or transform a furnished space, use Backbone's 3D Staging instead.

How long does photo editing take?
Arrow icon

All three levels are delivered from 48 hours. Photos come back ready for both online (portals, websites, social) and offline (brochures, prints) usage.

Can I edit photos I’ve taken myself?
Arrow icon

Yes. Backbone photo editing works from any existing photo, whether captured by you, by a third-party photographer, or by a previous Backbone shoot. You can also use the Backbone mobile app and built-in AI Photo Studio to handle quick fixes yourself, things like erasing unwanted objects, swapping out a grey sky, or correcting lighting in seconds. If the photo needs more complex retouching, upload it to the platform for professional editing instead.
