How to Remove a Background using Photoshop
Photo editing is becoming very influential day-by-day. The importance of photo editing is also increasing drastically. A background is an important element of a photograph and there is no doubt about it. A background actually compliments the whole photograph. It is background which allows the main object to shine out. But sometimes the background goes wrong and so the entire photo just because of a wrong background. For getting out of a bad background and to avoid a bad photograph, background removal or clipping path technique of Photoshop is highly used. Almost every Photo Editing Company uses background removal service or clipping path technique to remove the background of the photos. You may be thinking that removing background is tough. It really is not that tough as you are thinking. You just have to know about the Photoshop Tool to edit background and to remove a background.
Let’s see how you can remove a background using Photoshop in just a few easy steps. Here I go.
Step 1
At first, you have to open the photo in Photoshop. To open the Photo, you need to go to file>open at the top right of Photoshop. Click on the photo you want to work with and press ok to import the file. You can also open the photo just by dragging the photo into Photoshop.
Step 2
You have to work in the background layer. So go to the layer panel and create a background layer where you can work.
Step 3
You have to select a tool by which you want to draw the lines of clipping path. There are multiple tools for making the selection such as pen tool, lasso tool, magic wand tool etc. I would suggest you to select the pen tool. Select the pen tool from the tool bar by clicking on the pen icon or press ‘p’ to activate the pen tool.
Step 4
You have to make the selection of the areas of clipping path area right after drawing clipping path. Keep the cursor on the background layer, and then click on the background layer and press ctrl on the keyboard at the same time to make the selection. Doing that, the whole clipping path area will be selected.
Step 5
When you are done making the selection of the clipping path areas, press ‘q’ on the keyboard and you will see that the background of the image is completely removed isolating the object.
CONCLUSION
Applying these 5 steps will help you to remove the background easily. You can use this procedure at home which will not take a long time. This process is not time-consuming at all. All you need is to know the use of Photoshop tool to make the work easier. I hope this article of mine will help you to edit and remove the background.
