Steps to change the background in Photoshop
- Open your image in Photoshop. This is the image with your subject desired and the background getting changed.
- Right-click the image layer. This should be in the bottom corner on the right-hand side (or wherever you place your layers tab).
- Click Layer From the Background. This should be the selection at the top of the dropdown.
- Click OK. This will open the layer for you to remove the current background. You may also rename this layer if you wish.
- Click Properties. This option should be found on the right-hand side of your screen.
- Click Remove Background. You may have to scroll down in order to locate this choice.
- Click the mask icon. This will enable the manipulation of the mask. You can jump to step 11 if you are satisfied that Photoshop has done an excellent job of removing the background.
- Click Select and Mask. Again, you might have to scroll down in order to locate this option.
- Use the Brush tool to include or remove elements in the image, or it gives the Refine Edge Brush to smooth out mask boundaries.
- Click OK. This will apply to your changes.
- Tap the Add New Layer button. This is located at the bottom right of your monitor.
- Insert new background. You can do this either by copy-paste the image from another Photoshop tab or by image uploading directly.
- Pull the background layer down. That is it! Read the Troubleshooting below to see how you can improve your subject as it relates to its new background.

How do you edit a photo to have a black background?
Set the ISO of your camera to a low setting, between 100 and 125. This reduces the camera’s light sensitivity, making your background darker and eliminating any unwanted texture in the photo. Change your shutter speed to counteract these variances. Observe how a fast shutter operates with your aperture.
How do you change colours in Photoshop?
From the Properties menu, select which colour you want to change from the second drop-down (like Blues, Reds or Cyans). Change the Hue and Saturation sliders to create the look you want.
