Frequently Asked Questions
How to add a white background to a photo with Luminar Neo?
If you want to change a photo background to white, you can easily do it by removing the background with the Background Removal AI Extension in Luminar Neo, and then adding a white background in Layers!
Can I adjust the shade of white for the background?
You can put a white background on a photo only after you’ve removed the current background, so it’s better to do so one photo at a time.
Is there an option to undo or revert changes if I'm not satisfied with the results?
Of course! You can undo any step of your editing in the Edits tab in Luminar Neo, including the one with the white background adder.
Can I add a white background to multiple photos at once?
You can put a white background on a photo only after you’ve removed the current background, so it’s better to do so one photo at a time.
