That beautiful, dreamy blur you see in the background of some photos? That’s bokeh. It’s the artistic quality of the out-of-focus parts of an image, and the name itself comes from the Japanese word “boke,” meaning “blur” or “haze.”
Creating bokeh traditionally involves special camera lenses or a wide aperture. However, these Photoshop actions make the effect accessible and time-saving, especially for those who don’t have high-end camera equipment.
These actions provide pre-configured settings that you can quickly apply to your images. What’s great is that you retain full control, enabling you to adjust both the intensity and unique style of the bokeh effect to suit your preferences.
From crafting dreamy portraits and adding sparkle to product photography to making holiday photos more festive, these bokeh effect Photoshop actions offer the perfect solution.
