01/10/2019/34 Comments/in Adobe Photoshop Tutorials /by Arian Rahman

Hi there, are you a photographer? Whatever you are freelancer photographer or Professional photographer, you need to remove your photo background and that’s why you are here! Today I will assist you to understand how pen tool works for removing photo background in adobe photoshop.

I will tell you step by step how to select pen tool, how to draw anchor point and create path, how to make transparent background. There are numbers of selection tools in photoshop but we will only use the first pen tool. Pen tool is the only tool that gives the very clean and sharp selections without blurred lines or soft edges because the pen tool uses vector technology. So if we want to cut out any object with clean sharp edges pen tool is an important tool to be used for removing photo background. So, let’s get started!

Step 1: Open Photoshop and Insert an Image

If you are new in photoshop do not worries. Because this is a very easy photoshop technique I am going to tell about. Open the photoshop and you will see there is pen tool icon on the left side of the software.

Step 2:  Select Pen Tool and Start Creating Clipping Path

Select an image that you want to remove background from your computer. As an example image I have taken a beautiful blanket image. We will create clipping path using the pen tool around the all edges of the image. This is like cutting an image from a newspaper with seizure! So let’s go and select the pen tool in the toolbar. We can start working from the any corner of the image. First we select a point and start drawing lines around the edges. The anchor point bends the path so you can move the head of the point. We can set our path properly with the help of this handle. Now we can click and drag for the next control point and bend it carefully to set it properly. If the paths gets out of line when drawing the previous control point we have bend its handle. To overcome this problem just hold the Alt Key and click on the last control point before we create a new one. It will remove the handle and allows us to draw the path properly. Then we continue drawing the path until we finish the whole image.
