You can right click a photo/video in Photos, then highlight 'Share' and click on 'Messages'.

iMessage Pictures from Prior Conversations Not Loading I have ALL my text and iMessages going back to the first iPhone, so the file is large, but I am currently experiencing issues where it will not load picture sent in previous conversations and instead jus shows a "tap to download" option, which when clicked doesn't load the picture, and eventually just shows a thumbnail with a question mark. How do I get these to load either on my iPhone, iPad or iMac even, none of them will load the pictures.
