Should be able to use 'key commands to copy-paste' into message stream.

What issue(s) have you noted in trying to send photos w/ MB + Messages?

There's articles tell of Continuity; & some about iCloud, that may apply.

If your iPhone or other cellular phone can forward SMS/MMS that's OK.

Unlike an organized situation: I've no 'handy archive' of how-to articles; beyond
