Remove portrait backgrounds. Keep the focus on you.

Hair and low-contrast edges may need manual refinement. The tool does not reconstruct hidden body parts.

A headshot for your next introduction

Use a clean cutout on a team page, a profile or a personal introduction. Leave some space above the head and keep the shoulders in frame when choosing the original photo. Changing the background does not retouch the face.

Take a closer look at the hairline

Curly hair and fine strands can blend into a busy or similarly colored background. Compare the original with the cutout on light and dark surfaces, then use restore or erase for areas that need attention.

Choose a setting that fits

Keep transparency, select a quiet color or upload your own scene. Background images fill the canvas and may be cropped. The editor does not move a person, remove only one bystander or invent missing scenery.

Questions, answered.

Can it remove one person behind me?

It separates the foreground subject from the background. It is not an object-removal tool that fills in the scene behind a removed person.

Can I make a professional headshot?

You can clean up or replace the background of an existing headshot. Clothing, pose and facial features are not generated or retouched.

What if hair is missing?

Try the restore brush and compare with the original. Very low-contrast strands may still require additional editing.
