Remove Person From Family Photo

Photoshop (or equivalent only) no AI use accepted. I have a high-resolution JPEG of a family gathering and need one person (my ex) removed cleanly. The surrounding background must stay exactly as it appears in the original shot—no blurring, swapping, or obvious cloning. Please work non-destructively in Photoshop (or equivalent), using content-aware fill, cloning, and other professional retouching techniques so the final image looks as though that person was never there.

Deliverables
• Retouched JPEG in the same resolution and colour profile as the source
• Layered PSD (or comparable editable file) showing your work separated for future tweaks

Acceptance criteria: at 200 % zoom there should be no halos, patterns, or colour shifts where the removal occurred, and overall lighting needs to remain consistent with the untouched areas.
