Looking for plug ins that do this

>>> 1. Make a person or object stand out in group photo;

You can do that by creating a selection around the person, inverting the selection and bluring the background.


>>> 2. Crop an person or object from photo without having to manually trace outline of the person or object;

If the person or object was shot in front of uniform colored background, it is no problem. If the object has a color that isn't present in the background, it will also be able to mask it very quickly. Otherwise you need to invest some time to trace the outlines. Photoshop offers tools for all three tasks.
