Nonlocal point-to-point correlations between two photons have been used to produce ``ghost'' images without placing the camera towards the object. Here we theoretically demonstrate and analyze the advantage of non-Gaussian quantum light in improving the image quality of a ghost imaging system over a traditional Gaussian light source. For any squeezing degree, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the ghost image can be enhanced by the non-Gaussian operations of photon addition and subtraction on a two-mode squeezed light source. We find striking evidence that using non-Gaussian coherent operations, the SNR can be promoted to a high level even within the extremely weak squeezing regime. The resulting insight provides experimental recipes of quantum imaging using non-Gaussian light for illumination.
