# Remove BG recommendation

### **Contrast**

High contrast between foreground and background gives better results than low contrast. It is worth ensuring that the photos are taken in good lighting conditions.

### **Prefer plain backgrounds**

Backgrounds with a single-color are easier to remove than backgrounds with many details.

### **Sharp foreground**

The foreground should be sharp and the edges of the objects should be clear, otherwise, the out-of-focus parts may be removed. If only the edges are blurred, they will still be blurred in the cutout, which may or may not be a problem.

### **Objects**

Objects held in the hands or worn on the body are usually supported, while large protruding objects can be problematic and may be removed.

## Recommendations for product photos and other objects

### **Whole object**

It's important that the entire product be visible in the photo, this means it can't be cut off, obscure&#x64;**,** or shaded.

### **Object in focus**

Place the subject in front of a smooth, uniform background (photo studio, wall, floor). This will give you a good indication of the shape of the object to be cut out.

### **Shadows and reflections**

Try to avoid shadows and reflections because they can be mistaken for part of the foreground. This will result in a wrong definition of the object's shape.
