Clipping Path : Sample Work

Last summer vacation, I attended seminar regarding Photography. I learned some steps and techniques which all about Clipping Path, using Adobe Photoshop pen tool. Here are some of the steps I learned from them;

This is the original image which will be clipped.

Step1:

Import the image (picture above) to Adobe Photoshop. Then Press CTRL+J to duplicate the layer.

Step2:

Choose the Pen Tool on the tools sections of your Photoshop or simply press P to navigate the pen tool. Using pen tool, clip your image on the edges you want to clip (see the picture below). Make it sure that the pen tool you are using is set to "PATH".

Step3:

After you clipped the image using pen tool and while you are on that layer (second layer), click the PATHS TAB located on the left side of your photoshop document aligned with the layers and channels tab.

--> you will see the path of what you have done using pen tool, it has default name,WORK PATH, simply double click it to rename the path.

While you are still on that layer, press CTRL + Enter to select the clipped image and press CTRL + SHIFT + I to inverse the selected layer, then press delete to remove the background of the image.

Step4:

Going back to the Layers Tab, Hide the first layer to see the image without its background.

...you can now do what design you want to apply on your image. This is what i did on this image. I just simply change its background color from white to black.

Clipping Path Services

Have you experienced to have a bank of photos on your camera, cell phones or even on your computers which occupy large space on the memory of your device? Have you ever thought to edit these photos but because of lack of knowledge and time on how to do it, you will just simply junk or delete it? Well, these are just few problems I had encountered before. Since I love photography, I didn’t notice that I have accumulated lots of photos stored inside my computer and cell phone, and I wanted to have an interesting look on my photos. I searched for a photo editing company that will give the best compositions and great look on my pictures. One of the companies I found which offers photo editing and photo enhancing services is the Beta-pix. They specialize in clipping path services, photo enhancing, photo masking and other services related to photo editing. I sent my images to them and bravo! They made my images nicer, more than what I have expected.
