Yes. A photo showing you and your family member or partner kissing is perfectly fine to send. Affectionate photos between people who have a personal relationship are permitted at virtually every facility.

The line that matters is nudity. Photos showing exposed private areas will be rejected at the mail room. Everything short of that, including kissing, embracing, and other displays of affection, passes through without issue.
