FAQ

How can I remove the background from a picture in Photoshop?

There are many ways to do so. Some people prefer to duplicate the layer, use the Pen Tool, the Quick Selection Tool, or the Magnetic Lasso Tool to select the parts they want to keep, then invert the selection and delete the background. If you are using newer versions of Photoshop (2020 or later), there’s also the Remove Background option, located under Quick Actions in the Properties panel.
