When to Use Background Blur

Background blur (bokeh effect) is a photography technique where the background is out of focus while the subject remains sharp. Cameras with wide-aperture lenses produce this naturally. This tool applies a uniform gaussian blur to simulate the effect digitally.

Best Use Cases

  • Profile photos — Blur a distracting background to keep the focus on the person.
  • Product photography — Blur a simple background to make products stand out.
  • Social media posts — Create a cinematic look for Instagram or LinkedIn posts.
  • Presentation slides — Add a blurred image as a slide background with text overlay.
