Step 3: Long press the photo to select it.

Step 4: Tap the forward button located at the top of the screen.

Step 5: On the next screen, select the contacts you want to share the photo with.

Step 6: You'll see a new section at the bottom showing the photo and its caption. 

Step 7: Press the Send button to share the photo with the caption.

Step 8: If you prefer not to include the caption, tap the 'x' button at the top right of the caption before sending.

Apart from this, you can add your caption by tapping the 'x' icon and typing your text. Moreover, WhatsApp is testing a new feature to manage and pin channels on the app for iPhone users. This new feature will improve the user experience.
