How do you get the contact pictures beside the messages?

[iMore Question]

I have an iPhone 6 and I have done all the updates and I still have yet to get the contact bubbles in my messaging app.

You can't get them beside the message in the conversation thread, if that's what you're referring to. They should, however, appear in the message listing section.

If you go to their actual contact page and tap their initials bubble it will say Editor add and add a contact pic from there and save.
Next time you receive a message or email from them or call their contact pic will be there.

PS If you are referring to what JustMe is referring then he is correct.
