Editing Toolbox: Removing Something from Behind the Subject
Mar 24, 2023By Charlotte Reeves
Have you ever shot the PERFECT image, only to realise there is something really distracting RIGHT behind the subject? 🤦🏻♀️
Removing things from behind the subject can be a minefield. There's lots of tools you can try (and I'll share some of those too) but they often make the job really fiddly, take ages and don't give you a great result.
I've developed a technique that allows you to quickly and easily remove distracting objects with a minimum of fuss though, and in this tutorial, I'm going to show you exactly how!
