How to replace a product shot background in Photoshop

In this tutorial, I'll guide you through the process of replacing a product shot background using Adobe Photoshop. I'll show you how to select the main subject, remove unwanted areas, and replace the background while preserving the original shadows.

First, we'll start by selecting the subject and using the quick selection tool to refine our selection. Then, we'll add a layer mask to hide the unwanted white area. After that, we'll create a duplicate layer of the headphones using the keyboard shortcut (Command + J for Mac or Windows Key + J for Windows).

Next, we'll invert the layer mask to hide the headphones and reveal the white background, including the shadows. We'll then change the blend mode of the original layer to "Multiply" to bring back the shadows.

To enhance the shadow, we'll create a new adjustment layer for levels and clip it to the original layer. This will allow us to darken the shadow and create a more realistic appearance.

Finally, I'll show you how to save your work in a smaller file size, making it perfect for uploading online. By adjusting the image size and saving it as a JPEG, you can ensure that your work looks great while taking up minimal space.
