draw ellipse on top of photo , fill white. change
edge property of ellipse antialiased feather. select both
the image , ellipse , choose modify > mask > group mask.
will able adjust fade off @ edge adjusting feather
amount.

the way export image fade background
export in 32-bit png format. unfortunately, not display
properly in internet explorer without first applying proprietary
markup called alpha image loader filter. can learn more
that here:

another option export in swf format , apply wmode transparency.
