Blur Background

Create a shallow-depth-of-field look by asking the background to soften while the main subject and its edge remain clear.

Illustrative catalog preview for this workflow; it is not a before-and-after result.

Ideal inputs

Upload one portrait or product photo with a visible subject boundary and describe the desired blur strength, focus plane, and background treatment.

How to use it

1

Choose the source

Use an image with a clear subject and enough background separation to guide the depth effect.

2

Describe the focus

State what should remain sharp, how soft the background should feel, and whether the light or color should change.

3

Review the edge transition

Inspect hair, fingers, thin objects, product contours, and shadows for an unnatural blur halo.

Useful for

  • Create a portrait profile concept
  • Give a product image more visual focus
  • Explore a softer background for an editorial crop

Expected result

The image-edit workflow generates a depth-of-field style variation guided by the subject and requested focus.

Limitations to review

There is no blur-strength slider or mask on this page. Fine hair, transparent objects, and busy backgrounds may not separate cleanly.

Frequently asked questions

Can I blur only the background?

Describe the subject that must stay sharp. The page uses text-directed editing, so inspect the subject boundary instead of expecting a precise mask.

Will the camera blur match a real lens?

It is a generated visual effect, not a measured depth map. Review the transition around hair, edges, and small objects.
