Shutterstock Adds Background Removal to Its Free Online Photo Editor

Shutterstock has rolled out a new background removal tool to its Shutterstock Editor online image editor, allowing users to quickly and easily extract subjects from their backgrounds in any photo.
Shutterstock says that “isolated,” “transparent background,” and “no background” are among the terms that users search for the most since the subjects of stock photos often need to be cut out and inserted into a different design.
With the new background removal tool, the extraction work can be done for you after you license an image.
“This highly-requested tool enables small business owners, marketers and other content creators to quickly edit and design creative content, without needing prior design education or clunky software,” Shutterstock says. “Now, users can design this content with ease, just in time for the holidays.”
In addition to selecting a photo from Shutterstock’s library of over 290 million images, you’re also free to upload your own to the online editor.
Once you have the photo loaded in the editor, simply click the new image background remover icon, which looks like an eraser.
After analyzing your photo, Shutterstock Editor will color what it thinks is the background with a yellow highlight and present you with a small preview. You can also fine-tune the result by using the “+ Add” and “- Remove” brushes.
When you’re satisfied with the results, hit “Apply” to perform the removal.
Here’s a short video showing the tool in action:
You can get started with the new tool by heading over to the free Shutterstock Editor online photo editor.

10 Of Our Fave Photo Editing Apps

Image
  I have a handful of different photo editing apps on my phone. I don’t always  edit my photos , but when I decide I want to add a little pizazz, I have a lot of ways to do that. I’m not ashamed to admit that AT ALL. There is literally nobody alive who doesn’t like to  look good in a photo . Exactly what that means to each person is open to vast amounts of interpretation, but everyone likes to see a photo of themselves and think, “I like this one.” I’m not over here giving myself a different face or body, but sometimes I like to throw a filter on a selfie, remove a zit, mess with the lighting on a photo of my kids, add a caption, or even just find a way to make a simple snapshot look a little nicer. During the strictest part of lockdown last April, I made use of these apps when I had to do milestone photos for my three-month-old at home. They’re not as gorgeous as her pro shots, but they look kind of fine next to her professional pics, and that’s because I used some photo editing apps

How to Create Realistic Shadows for Product Photography in Photoshop

Image
If you’ve ever used Adobe Photoshop’s built-in Layer Styles tool as-is for creating drop shadows, you may have found it lacking in realism. Here’s a better way to add shadows to your product photography. A lot of the time I use Layer Styles for quick and dirty Photoshop jobs that are more about conveying the sense of depth or texture rather than really making it look lifelike when viewed close up. That’s where  Tony Roslund ’s quick tip comes in (with a hat tip to Aaron Nace from Phlearn). As a professional product photographer, he needs those high-quality shadows for his clients that can usually only be achieved by taking some extra steps. Rather than going to the Layer Styles route, Roslund shows us how to use multiple duplicate layers to build more complex and lifelike shadows. By stacking shadows, his examples also have all the benefits of being independent layers to mask or further refine. Have you tried creating realistic shadows in Photoshop before? Do you use the La
