Here's another handy tip from Paul for an easy way to remove the background from your photos. https://www.remove.bg/ Using this function will help you to create a new picture that has just the people without the background of the original picture. You upload a photo (or provide a link to a photo) and soon after you will be presented with the background-less image that can be downloaded and saved. Then you can add your own background, or just leave it blank. As always, check the Privacy Policy of the website before using it.
