Photoabsorption cross sections of Nd and Sm isotopes from spherical to deformed even nuclei are systematically investigated by means of the quasiparticle-random-phase approximation based on the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov ground states (HFB+QRPA) using the Skyrme energy density functional. The gradual onset of deformation in the ground states as increasing the neutron number leads to characteristic features of the shape phase transition. The calculation well reproduce the isotopic dependence of broadening and emergence of a double-peak structure in the cross sections without any adjustable parameter. We also find that the deformation plays a significant role for low-energy dipole strengths. The $E1$ strengths are fragmented and considerably lowered in energy. The summed $E1$ strength up to 10 MeV is enhanced by a factor of five or more.
