Hello,
You would use the Photos app to delete the photos. If you use iCloud Photos they will be deleted from iCloud and all of you devices when deleted on any of your devices.
Delete photos or recover deleted ones in Photos on Mac - Apple Support
"Delete photos and videos
- In the Photos app
on your Mac, select the items you want to delete. - Do one of the following:
- Delete selected photos and videos in Days view: Press Delete, then click Delete. The selected items are deleted from your library and placed in the Recently Deleted album.
- Delete photos and videos from an album, but not from your library: Press Delete. The selected items are deleted from the album only and remain your library.
- Delete photos and videos from a Smart Album (for example, Last Import, Favorites, or Videos):Press Command-Delete. The selected items are deleted from your library and placed in the Recently Deleted album.
- Delete photos and videos and then permanently remove them from the Recently Deleted album:Press Command-Delete, then open the Recently Deleted album. Select the items you want to delete permanently, click Delete, then click OK."
I hope this helps.
