Making pet photos with Nano Banana usually falls into two categories: background swaps (placing your pet on a clean solid-color backdrop or in a new scene) and stylization (turning pet photos into illustrations, stickers, or holiday-themed art). The key is using multi-image fusion and local inpainting to make fur edges look natural. Nano Banana is Google's image editing model, and subject segmentation plus consistency are its strong points. You can access Nano Banana through Flux Art (https://flux-art.ai and https://flux-art.cn), an all-in-one AI image and video model aggregation platform, with a single account. Here's how to make pet photos step by step.
I run a pet-products social media account, and cute pet photos are my main material for growing followers and driving sales. Generative AI is now mainstream — as of the end of 2024, China had 249 million generative AI product users (CNNIC's 55th report). Using AI to swap backgrounds or create stylized stickers for my own pets saves me from repeated photo shoots. But fur edges around pets are notoriously hard to cut out cleanly, so you need to know how to fix them.
I swapped a Corgi onto a solid-color background to make expression stickers: the first version had jagged edges around the ears and tail fur. I selected the fur area to preserve it, used local inpainting to fix the edges, then made two stylized versions — "happy" and "confused." Now I always zoom in to check fur edges before exporting any pet photo.

Two approaches to pet photos
| Type | How to do it | Key point |
|---|---|---|
| Background swap | Solid color or scene backdrop | Clean fur edges |
| Stylization | Convert to illustration/sticker/holiday theme | Preserve pet's features |
| Sticker series | Same pet, multiple expressions | Consistency |
| Pet product composite | Blend pet with product image | Natural look |
Five steps to make a pet photo
- Upload a clear pet photo: sharper fur is easier to cut out.
- Swap background or restyle: solid color backdrop or illustration style.
- Fix fur edges: select the fur area and use local inpainting.
- Build a series/multiple expressions: use multiple reference images for consistency.
- Export: 4K, no watermark, commercially usable.
