i would say a Macbook Air 2012 onwards, would be for the best possible performance. Older gens can still run, but maybe not as well..

you can go Apple.com to have a look, though what they advertise are the latest.

Macbook Air : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacBook_Air

Macbook Pro : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacBook_Pro

Look for integrated GPU of HD4000 onwards for better response time in Photoshop with exception of Year 2010 Macbook Pro which uses nVidia 3xxM GPU chipsets

If you have the budget, upgrade the SSD to your desire capacity and RAM to 8GB.

Both cannot be upgraded later once you purchase. Parts are not available. That goes for MacBook Pro Retina type as well.

Only the normal 13-inch MacBook Book Pro (non retina) can upgrade the RAM and HDD afterwards.

Yes that will be good cause retina uses SSD , at least min 8GB of ram will be sufficient.

Photo editing is good enough with the current specifications.

Except you talking about video rendering.
