Here's a tutorial on how to put images in text with Photoshop. The first step is to create a blank layer, then fill it using the color you want. I'll fill it with white. Next, write your text on the canvas using the Horizontal Type Tool. Adjust its size and position using the Free Transform command. Make a selection around the text then activate the white layer and hit the Delete key. This way the selection will be erased so that the photo below will be visible.

Please find your photo location folder then click your photo. If your file is not visible, try to display all files by selecting "All Formats" in the "Files of type" column. Then click the Open button. By default, your photo will be loaded into a layer called Background.
