Something like this?

Set foreground color to white
New blank layer
Make a selection around your subject on the blank layer
Invert the selection and set feather - I used 200 pixels
Fill the selection on the blank layer w/white
Deselect
Adjust opacity
Save as psd or flatten and save as jpg

Use the select tool of your choice - I used the lasso.  You may have to 
try a couple selections and feather amounts to see what works best
