Use can simply use an implicit Intent to attach the image,

   shareIntent.setType("image/jpeg");

   //set your subject
   shareIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "Email Subject"); 
   //set your message    
   shareIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "Email Messasge"); 

   String imagePath = "specify_the_image_path_here"

   File imageFileToShare = new File(imagePath);
   Uri uri = Uri.fromFile(imageFileToShare);

   shareIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, uri);
   startActivity(Intent.createChooser(shareIntent, "Share Image"));
