Tips
Portrait Photos
For portraits, drag the circle focus to the face. Set blur strength to 15–20 and feather to 30% for a natural bokeh-like depth of field effect.
Product Photos
Use Rectangle focus shape for products. Position it over the product, increase blur to 25+, and the background will recede naturally behind your subject.
Add Vignette
Enable the vignette option to darken the edges of the photo. This draws the eye to the center and adds a cinematic, professional look to your images.

How the Blur Works
The tool applies a CSS/Canvas blur filter to the entire image, then composites a sharp version of your subject using a circular or rectangular focus mask with a soft feathered edge. The result mimics the natural depth-of-field bokeh effect produced by a camera with a wide aperture lens.
