I am trying to load images into the attribute table. I created a new field in the table and set the field type to Raster. Yet for some reason, there doesn't seem to be an option to actually load the field with images. Later, I tried in ArcMap and I was successful, but when I pulled the feature class back into ArcGIS Pro, the photos wouldn't appear in the pop-ups. 

Thanks in advance!

Hi Claudia,

You can select the feature and then click on 'Attributes' under the Edit ribbon.  In the Attributes pane you can add an image there by click the +:

Thanks so much- I tried that and I was able to add the image, however I still can't see the image in the pop-up. Is there another place where the image is supposed to be viewed?

I would recommend working with attachments.  This will allow you to view the attached image in a pop-up:

If I upload the layer to ArcGIS Online, will the photos still be visible?

Not in the pop-up, but there's a tool you can use to do enable this:
