All we need to do is select the person or object we want to remove and then let Generative Fill work its magic as it replaces them with AI-generated content that blends perfectly with the rest of your image.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike Content-Aware Fill where we need to tell Photoshop where in the image to look for replacement content, Generative Fill uses Adobe\u2019s generative AI named Firefly to create new and original content from scratch. The result is often so good, you\u2019ll wonder if the person or object you removed was ever really there. So let\u2019s see how it works.<\/p>\n<h3>Which version of Photoshop do I need to use Generative Fill?<\/h3>\n<p>As of <a href=\"https:\/\/adobe.prf.hn\/click\/camref:1100lrdjJ\/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.adobe.com%2Fproducts%2Fphotoshop.html\" title=\"Get Photoshop from Adobe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Photoshop 2024<\/a>, Generative Fill is out of beta and now available in the official Photoshop release.<\/p>\n<p>If you have an active Creative Cloud subscription, use the Creative Cloud Desktop app to make sure that your copy of Photoshop is up to date.<\/p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\n.ads-middle { display: inline-block; width:300px; margin:6px 0px 24px 0px; padding-top: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; }\n@media (max-width: 515px) { .ads-middle { margin:20px 0; } }\n@media (max-width: 480px) { .ads-middle { margin:20px 0; } }\n<\/style><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-6601556224092982\"\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\n<!-- photo effects 300x250 middle responsive -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle ads-middle\"\n     style=\"display:block\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6601556224092982\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"4216941496\"\n     data-ad-format=\"rectangle\"\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<p>Let's get started!<\/p>\n<p class=\"members-ad-top\"><a href=\"\/print-ready-pdfs\/\">Download all of our Photoshop tutorials as PDFs!<\/a><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"sub\">Remove people or objects from photos with Generative Fill<\/h2>\n<p>Here's how to use Photoshop's Generative Fill to remove people or objects from your photo.

Generative Fill needs that extra space so it can figure out what the AI-generated content should look like and how to blend it with the surrounding area.<\/p>\n<p>So as I draw my selection, notice that I\u2019m purposely including some of the background.<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-editing\/2023\/generative-fill-remove-people\/drawing-selection-outline.jpg\" alt=\"Using the Lasso Tool to draw a selection outline around the person.\" width=\"800\" height=\"536\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">Using the Lasso Tool to draw a selection outline around the person.<\/div>\n<p>Here\u2019s my completed selection.

The result is usually so good, it\u2019s like they were never there to begin with.<\/p>\n<p>Notice with my image that Photoshop filled the area with new grass, new plants in the background and new detail in the bridge where the woman was walking. The new content even matches the depth of field of the original photo, with everything in the background nicely blurred.<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-editing\/2023\/generative-fill-remove-people\/person-removed-from-photo-generative-fill.jpg\" alt=\"The person was removed from the photo using Generative Fill in Photoshop.\" width=\"798\" height=\"536\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">Generative Fill removes the person from the photo.<\/div>\n<h3>Photoshop\u2019s new Generative layer<\/h3>\n<p>In the <a href=\"\/basics\/layers\/layers-panel\/\" title=\"Learn more about the Layers panel in Photoshop\">Layers panel<\/a>, a new kind of layer called a <strong>Generative layer<\/strong> appears above the image. <\/p>\n<p>Generative layers hold the AI content and keep it separate from the original photo.

All we need to do is expand the selection.<\/p>\n<p>After making your initial selection using either Select Subject or the Object Selection Tool, but <em>before<\/em> clicking the Generative Fill button, click the <strong>Modify Selection<\/strong> button next to it.<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-editing\/2023\/generative-fill-remove-people\/modify-selection-button.jpg\" alt=\"Clicking the Modify Selection button.\" width=\"613\" height=\"213\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">Clicking the Modify Selection button.<\/div>\n<p>Choose <strong>Expand Selection<\/strong> from the menu.<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-editing\/2023\/generative-fill-remove-people\/choose-expand-selection.jpg\" alt=\"Choosing the Expand Selection option. \" width=\"613\" height=\"213\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">Choosing the Expand Selection option. <\/div>\n<p>Then expand the selection by <strong>20 pixels<\/strong> and click OK.<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-editing\/2023\/generative-fill-remove-people\/expand-selection-20-pixels.jpg\" alt=\"Expanding the selection by 20 pixels.\" width=\"459\" height=\"216\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">Expanding the selection by 20 pixels.<\/div>\n<p>By expanding the selection, we\u2019ve included some of the area surrounding the person.<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-editing\/2023\/generative-fill-remove-people\/selection-outline-expanded.jpg\" alt=\"The result after expanding the selection.\" width=\"503\" height=\"650\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">The result after expanding the selection.<\/div>\n<p>And now when we click <strong>Generative Fill<\/strong> and then <strong>Generate<\/strong>, we get a much better result, one that\u2019s just as impressive as when we made the selection using the Lasso Tool.<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-editing\/2023\/generative-fill-remove-people\/generative-fill-better-result.jpg\" alt=\"Expanding the selection before removing the person solved the problem.\" width=\"798\" height=\"536\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">Expanding the selection before removing the person solved the problem.<\/div>\n<p class=\"members-ad-top\"><a href=\"\/print-ready-pdfs\/\">Download all of our Photoshop tutorials as PDFs!<\/a><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"sub\">More examples using Generative Fill<\/h2>\n<p>Let\u2019s quickly look at a few more examples showing how amazing Generative Fill really is at removing people or objects from photos.<\/p>\n<h3>Example 1: Shallow depth of field<\/h3>\n<p>In <a href=\"https:\/\/adobe.prf.hn\/click\/camref:1100lrdjJ\/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fstock.adobe.com%2Fimages%2Ffurry-friends-red-cat-and-corgi-dog-walking-in-a-summer-meadow-under-the-drops-of-warm-rain%2F440157013\" title=\"View this image on Adobe Stock\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">this cute photo<\/a>, let\u2019s see how Generative Fill handles the very shallow depth of field.<\/p>\n<p>With apologies in advance to cat lovers, I\u2019ll draw a loose selection around the cat using the Lasso Tool, and I\u2019ll make sure to include the long shadow extending out in front of him.<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-editing\/2023\/generative-fill-remove-people\/dog-and-cat-photo.jpg\" alt=\"Removing an element from an image with a shallow depth of field.\" width=\"803\" height=\"580\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">Removing an element from an image with a shallow depth of field.<\/div>\n<p>In the Contextual Task Bar, I\u2019ll click <strong>Generative Fill<\/strong> and then <strong>Generate<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The result looks amazing. The replacement content blends seamlessly with the rest of the image and it keeps the same depth of field.<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-editing\/2023\/generative-fill-remove-people\/cat-removed-from-photo.jpg\" alt=\"Generative Fill removed the cat from the photo and kept the same depth of field.\" width=\"803\" height=\"580\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">Generative Fill keeps the depth of field intact.<\/div>\n<p>Just to be fair, here\u2019s the same photo but this time with the dog removed. Again the depth of field in the replacement content matches <q>purr-fectly<\/q>.<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-editing\/2023\/generative-fill-remove-people\/dog-removed-from-photo.jpg\" alt=\"Another result showing Generative Fill keeping the depth of field in the replacement content.\" width=\"803\" height=\"580\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">Different animal removed, same great result.<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"sub\">Example 2: Removing a group of people at once<\/h2>\n<p>Generative Fill can remove an entire group of people from a photo at once, like in <a href=\"https:\/\/adobe.prf.hn\/click\/camref:1100lrdjJ\/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fstock.adobe.com%2Fimages%2Fbig-group-of-tourists-are-sitting-in-mountains%2F419054117\" title=\"View this image on Adobe Stock\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">this photo<\/a> from Adobe Stock. <\/p>\n<p>This is the same image I used in my tutorial on <a href=\"\/photo-effects\/generative-fill-in-photoshop-how-to-add-water-reflections-to-an-image\/\" title=\"Learn how to use Generative Fill to add water reflections to a photo\">how to  add water reflections<\/a> with Generative Fill.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll use the Lasso Tool to draw a quick selection outline around the entire group.<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-editing\/2023\/generative-fill-remove-people\/select-groupof-people-in-photo.jpg\" alt=\"Selecting the group of people to remove them from the photo with Generative Fill.\" width=\"802\" height=\"539\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">Selecting the group of people.<\/div>\n<p>Then I\u2019ll click <strong>Generative Fill<\/strong> in the Task Bar and then <strong>Generate<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Once again the result looks fantastic.

Can it restore a missing part of your subject?<\/p>\n<p>With <a href=\"https:\/\/adobe.prf.hn\/click\/camref:1100lrdjJ\/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fstock.adobe.com%2Fimages%2Fportrait-of-three-male-university-or-college-student-standing-outdoors-by-modern-campus-building%2F469668203\" title=\"View this image on Adobe Stock\">this photo<\/a>, I\u2019ll remove the guy on the left. But notice that he\u2019s blocking part of the arm of the guy standing next to him, which means that Generative Fill  needs to create that missing part of the arm.<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-editing\/2023\/generative-fill-remove-people\/final-image.jpg\" alt=\"The person I want to remove from the photo is blocking part of the person next to him.\" width=\"802\" height=\"539\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">The person I want to remove is blocking part of the person beside him.<\/div>\n<p>I\u2019ll draw a loose selection outline around the guy on the left using the Lasso Tool.<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-editing\/2023\/generative-fill-remove-people\/select-guy-on-left.jpg\" alt=\"Selecting the person to remove from the photo.\" width=\"802\" height=\"539\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">Selecting the person to remove from the photo.<\/div>\n<p>Then in the Contextual Task Bar, I\u2019ll click the <strong>Generative Fill<\/strong> button and then <strong>Generate<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Turns out this was no challenge at all. Like magic, Generative Fill created the missing part of his arm and even added the rest of his backpack. It also filled in the building in the background, the grass and the sidewalk. <\/p>\n<p>You would never guess that someone was standing there when the photo was taken, except that the composition is now off-center. But I could easily <a href=\"\/photo-editing\/extend-images-with-generative-fill\/\" title=\"Learn how to extend an image with Generative Fill\">use Generative Fill to extend the image<\/a> and fix it.<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-editing\/2023\/generative-fill-remove-people\/generative-fill-missing-arm-rebuilt.jpg\" alt=\"Selecting the person to remove from the photo.\" width=\"802\" height=\"539\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">Generative Fill easily removed the person and added all of the missing detail.<\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\n.ads-bottom { width:300px; padding-top:16px;padding-bottom:16px; }\n<\/style><div align=\"center\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-6601556224092982\"\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\n<!-- 300x250 page bottom responsive -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle ads-bottom\"\n     style=\"display:block\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6601556224092982\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"2879809098\"\n     data-ad-format=\"rectangle\"\n\t data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/div>\n<p>And there we have it!
