Laptops are not ideal for photo editing as the screen size and positioning is less than optimum for fine tuning adjustments. If you need a laptop for portability and travel considerations then it might be worth getting an additional larger monitor to use when editing at home. If you don't need the portability then a desktop offers more bang for your buck.

Photo editing is not particularly processer intensive so you don't need a massively powerful computer, unless you are going to do video work when faster processing power is essential.

Budget is of course always a consideration.
