To blur photo backgrounds for a professional look, use a wide aperture (low f-stop) to create shallow depth of field. Focus on your subject while keeping the background out of focus. In editing, day to dusk photo editing use tools like Photoshop or mobile apps to apply selective blur. This technique highlights the subject, reduces distractions, and gives photos a polished, high-quality appearance.
