Are you using iPhoto or Photos?

Do you want to add the text as a graphics overlay to the picture? Or do you want to add a title to the picture as metadata in Photos or iPhoto?


To write text onto a photo in Photos for Mac you can use the Markup extension. It wll work in PHotos 4 and Photos 5. See this Help page:
