How to Crop a Face Into a Photo
- 1). Open the photo from which you want to crop the face in your editing software.
- 2). Select the face with the lasso or free selection tool, depending on what software you are using.
- 3). Copy the face. Open the photo you want to crop the face into in a new document on your editing software.
- 4). Paste the face into the photo onto a new layer and move the face into the proper location. Try to position the new face onto the old as closely as possible.
- 5). Resize and rotate the face if necessary. Some editing programs have a free-transform tool that will allow you to do this all at once. Others will require you to resize and rotate separately.
- 6). Blur the edges of the face using a feather tool if your software has that option. This is done by selecting the face, choosing the feather option and feathering by 2-10 pixels depending on the size of your photo. Feather more for large photos, less for small photos.
- 7). Merge your layers and save the photo as a new file.
