Another way to expand your frame, or remove unwanted areas in Photoshop is using the lasso tool plus the fill, or the new Content-aware fill options. Sometimes we have unwanted objects in our frame, or in the case of the below image my background didn’t quite cover all I needed, and just want a quick easy fix.
The Content-aware fill
I already covered using the Clone Stamp tool in another article, but by using the Fill or the Content-aware fill we are making the most of the AI within Photoshop to expand our image or cover something up. I used the lasso tool to quickly make my selected area and then right-click to access the Fill or the Content-aware fill options. This makes things even quicker and we don’t have to do all the work ourselves. I created a little video to show you how it is done.
