EDITAR : Estoy usandoUIStoryBoard.

yo tengopresented Me gusta esto:

UIImagePickerController *imagePicker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];

imagePicker.delegate = self;

imagePicker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary; //| UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeSavedPhotosAlbum ;
imagePicker.mediaTypes = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:(NSString *) kUTTypeImage,nil];

if ([UIImagePickerController isSourceTypeAvailable:UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary])
{
    if ([[UIDevice currentDevice] userInterfaceIdiom] == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPhone)
    {
        imagePicker.allowsEditing = YES;
        [self.navigationController presentViewController:imagePicker animated:YES completion:^{

        }];  
    }
}

Ahora, cuandodissmissed

-(void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary *)info
{
   UIImage *image = info[UIImagePickerControllerEditedImage];
    NSLog(@"Image : %@",image);
    [self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:^{
    }];
}

Ahoraview se vuelve así como se muestra enfiqure :
