Easy Way to Blur a Background in Adobe Photoshop 2023

Learn How to Blur the Background in Adobe Photoshop 2023 | Easy Step-by-Step Tutorial

Welcome to this comprehensive tutorial where I will guide you through the process of blurring the background in your photos using Adobe Photoshop 2023. This technique is not limited to the latest version; it also works seamlessly with any Photoshop version that has the Select Subject feature. To determine if your version has this, just navigate to the Select menu and look for the Subject option.

Achieving a beautifully blurred background in your photos is easier than you might think. By following these simple steps, you can add a professional touch to your images to focus attention on the main subject:

STEP 1: Separate the main subject
Isolating the main subject from the rest of the image on a new layer. This can be accomplished using the Select Subject feature to generate a Layer Mask. This ensures that only the subject remains visible while the background becomes transparent.

STEP 2: Create a new background layer
Next, create a separate layer for the new background. For this we use the Content-Aware Fill feature to remove the main subject automatically.

STEP 3: Apply the Gaussian Blur filter
Having removed the subject, we can now blur the background layer. For this, we use the Gaussian Blur filter, which allows you to control the intensity of the blur.

While this process may seem straightforward, I will also share some valuable tips and tricks to optimize your results. By implementing these techniques, you can further enhance the visual impact of your blurred backgrounds.
