HELP! I have picture where the model was shot against a grey background. If I want the background to be white how do I do it? Lasso around the model and drop it in or is there a more efficient way?
Thanks

Look up Colour Range in the F1 Help Files within Photoshop. If you have a distinct or defined background it may help.

It would help to see the colour range in the photo but understand that you may not have a release from the model to post images.
