Remove a Passerby from a Photo

How it works

1. 1

   Upload the photo with the passerby in frame

   JPG, PNG, or WebP up to 7MB. Blurred, sharp, at the edge, or mid-frame all work — the one thing that matters is that you can say where they are and what they are wearing.

   Expect: A walker at the edge of the frame against pavement or a wall takes about 15-30 seconds and usually comes back clean on the first try. One who crossed directly in front of your subject is the hard case, because part of the subject has to be rebuilt.

   Describe the passerby and what continues behind them

   Type the whole instruction: 'remove the man in the yellow jacket walking past at the far right edge, continue the grey stone wall and pavement, keep the woman in the red coat exactly as she is.' There is nothing to select or trace — clothing colour, direction, and position are how the AI finds them.

   Tip: Say where they are in the frame. 'Far right edge', 'crossing behind the bench', 'bottom left corner' narrows it to one figure instantly.

   Copy one of these to get started:

   Walker at the edge of the frame remove the man in the yellow jacket walking past at the far right edge of the photo and continue the stone wall and pavement where he was

   Passerby in front of your subject remove the person walking in front of the couple and rebuild the parts of them that were covered — the man's jacket and the woman's arm — and continue the paving; keep their faces and poses unchanged

   Check the path they crossed

   Zoom along the line they walked. Kerbs, paving joints, zebra stripes, and shop fronts should continue straight through the gap. If your subject was in front of or behind them, check that outline too.

   Refine with a marker if needed

   If a shoe or bag is still visible, or a different walker was removed, tap a marker on the piece you mean and repeat the instruction. A single clearly placed passerby rarely needs it.
