Have you ever cropped someone out of a photo?

of course - sometimes strangers, sometimes I haven't gotten a good single shot of everyone in a group but with judicious cropping, I can get at least one good photo of everyone on my page, and sometimes one of my kids(or DH) will 'photobomb' and depending on the photo, they might get cropped out.

Yep.  She was a friend of a friend and I cropped her out of a group picture that was framed in my house. I have zero regrets about it.

Usually just photobombs or background people.

I would like to crop my brother-laws ex-girlfriend out of my wedding photos but that would be complicated (to crop, not emotionally or anything.)  

Oh definitely. Different reasons:

one could be a bad picture of one person out of the group, if there are other pictures of them.. not to totally delete person from the layout
strangers
focusing on maybe one person in the pic
if I was scrapping my nieces/nephew and their dad is in the pic, he's getting the old chop-a-roo.  BAD BLOOD on his side.  (I have not chopped him out of pics done in the past)

Yes, usually strangers. Or sometimes I'll crop photos different ways and use both, maybe bcz someone's eyes are closed or something like that.

My SO's daughter was an NFL cheerleader for a rival team. When we went to the game I took a photo of them and another cheerleader friend jumped on the other side. I still used/printed that photo also, but I cropped her out for wanting a photo of just dad & daughter.

Oh yes. Photoshop is my best friend. As well as removing people out of photos (usually strangers), I also combine two group photos to make sure I get a decent photo of everyone.

Yes!!

I specifically remember cropping my first MIL’s jerk husband out of an otherwise lovely photo. I just didn’t like that man.

Like most of you, I tend to use embellishments or other elements on a page to cover up strangers or their parts from photos.

My dd gave me a hard time cuz I used a pic I liked of ME at her wedding for a profile pic, but to do that I cut HER out of the pic! Her dad was on the other side of me in the original pic, but she didn't complain that HE was missing LOL..


I like the new iPhone photo feature that will actually select and isolate the people from a photo, so the background can be eliminated. Haven't tried it to cut particular PEOPLE out LOL. I know the context is important, but when background pulls attention away from the subject of the photos, it can be annoying, and its nice to get at least one clear photo of the people enjoying that context.


I have actually cut--with scissors--some people out of one group shot and physically moved them to another so all people appear at their best in one photo.

Yup, and depending how much I like to photo and who is centered I might crop out people I like/love if I need to photo to be a certain size.

For strangers in the background I love Google photo's magic eraser! I recently took a scenery photo and there was just one person in the background. Instead of waiting and getting left behind by the group, I just snapped cuz I knew I could easily erase them.

On a rare occasion I will crop out a stranger, but not people intended for the photo. On the other hand, I take pictures of animals pooping, so my standards might be different than other people.

Cropped out strangers and ugly objects. Covering them up doesn’t always work and neither does the eraser function in my free knockoff PS app.
