In this tutorial I’m gonna show you how to create a really nice photo effect, out of frame.

  1. First of all, you are going to need a photo to apply the effect on. I’ve chosen this one:
    If you want to use this one,  Right click on it – Copy to clipboard. From Photoshop – File – New – OK – CTRL  + V to paste .

  2. Add a new layer (CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + N)
    Select Rectangle Tool (U), the color black and draw the surface where you will put the photo.

  3. Right click on the layer – Blending Options – set Fill to 0%.

  4. Check Stroke, the color white , size 13 px.
     

  5. Check Drop Shadow and add the following settings:

  6. Edit – Transform – Perspective and move the right corner a bit down to create a 3d effect:

  7. Select the layer with the picture and then choose Polygonal Lasso Tool (from the top menu, Feather: 1 px) and select the contour of the biker from outside the frame and the contour of the frame. Try to select all the details, like in the following picture:
    From the top menu, Select – Inverse.
    Press “Delete” to erase this part.

  8. Right click on the layer with the frame – Convert to Smart Object.
    Right click again – Rasterize Layer.
    Select Polygonal Lasso Tool and select/ erase the edge of the frame which covers the subject:
     

    Press “Delete” to erase.

  9. Optionally, you can add some shadow which comes out of the frame.
    Add a new layer above the Background layer (select the background layer, then CTRL + ALT + SHIFT + N) .
    Select Brush Tool (size 72 px, hardness: 0%, opacity: 8%, flow: 50%) and draw a shadow. 

    Here’s how the final image should look like:
