Edit Subjects and Backgrounds Separately for Precision and Control

Our background remover does more than erase an image background—it gives you complete creative control over your editing process. With our Background Remover tool built into our photo editing tools, you can quickly isolate your subject while keeping the image background intact, allowing you to edit them separately. Brighten your subject to make it pop, apply Artsy filters to the background, or fine-tune both independently for a perfectly balanced composition. Whatever your creative vision, BeFunky’s Background Remover and photo effects make it easy to achieve the perfect edit!
