Cropping a rectangular profile photo into a "circular crop"

Question

I've googled how to do the Cropping of a rectangular profile photo into a "circular crop" and adobe's tool keeps on popping up in the top of the googled results, however once in the Express Adobe account, I see no options to achive that desired circular cropping, I just see different versions of either cropping into a square or different rectangular proportions.

Any help with this would be much appreciated. Even if the answer is just to say that this is not offered by adobe, then I can stop trying.

Sadly, it looks like you have a more premium plan, I'm on a brand new account free plan, and while everything in my screen looks very similar to yours, that little "crop and shape" button is not there on my end. having said that i have found how to do this directly on my mac's default tools, so i think we can close this topic, thank you for your help

Hi,

If you know it its simple... Let me show it.

First you choose the (rectangular) Image of your choice in a new or present Project.

After that you mark the Image (click on it) and you see on the right side this "Edit Image" Panel. There you choose "Crop & Shape".

There you scroll a little bit down till you see "Shapes" and then choose the circle. After that you can tweak the Selection a little bit until it is to your liking.

After you found that its all Ok, you click on the small hook in the Top right corner.

And there it is, your circular Image. Hope that helps.
