Text Message adding Photos but Stuck?
I’m trying to send Text Message with a photo but the Photo Icon does not bring up my images. It gets stuck with just the white screen and the photo icon.

Hello SheepDog5150,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities! I see that you're unable to view and send photos in the Messages app on your iPhone. Thanks for including a screenshot of that behavior, and I would be happy to help point you towards a resolution.
Is the issue happening when you try to send a photo to a specific contact or does it occur with all contacts? Are you able to share a photo via Messages in the Photos app instead?
I would also like to have you try the following, then let us know if you're still encountering the behavior after:
Cheers!
Joseph,
This happens intermittently with all contacts and both ways, either from messages and from photos.
I have to restart the phone to make it work again. The up down and hold the power button.
