Add photo to imessage without drag and drop?

Is there a way to add a photo to a text/imessage w/o using drag and drop? On the iPhone or iPad there's a little camera icon that can be clicked and a photo selected. On the mac it needs to be dragged and dropped. This is very difficult for a person with extremely limited mobility, is there a way to get the camera icon on iMessage on the mac itself?

Yes, there is a way!


Locate the photo using Finder (or place it on your desktop). Control click (or right click) on the photo. Then choose "Share > Messages". That will cause the photo to be placed into a new iMessage conversation.
