The Trap: Do not pronounce "-ed" as an extra syllable.
How Native Speakers Say It: Voice a clean /d/ consonant at the end of the root word smoothly.

When "photoed" is followed by a word starting with a vowel, glide the final consonant into the opening vowel (e.g. "photoed is" sounds like "photoed-iz").
