I am trying to edit some product photography to a fully white background while retaining natural looking shadows from the original image. Everything I have tried has ended up looking very unnatural, where the background is pure white and the shadows look dull and don't blend well. If anyone has a full on tutorial recommendation for this please let me know. I have posted one of the pictures I am working with.
Thanks!
