Hi,

 

I am using Nikon D5300, 18 to 55mm lens. Could you please tell me how to blur background of the subject completely?. It would be great if you could provide links to refer. 

 

Thanks in advance

Use a wider aperture and stand closer to your subject.  With the 18-55mm it's hard to get a dramatic background blur, but it is possible wide-open at 55mm when your subject is fairly close.
