The process is very simple. A graphic designer uses Photoshop program to isolate an image from the original photograph and put it under its own image file. For example, say there is a photograph with 10 different objects or person in the photo. For whatever the reason there might be, you might want to single out a single object or a specific person from the original photograph and use that as a single new image. Clipping path service providers or specialists can do the job on the fly in just matter of minutes.
