Have you managed to get the ALAsset? Once you do, getting the image is easy. To get a thumbnail, the asset has a method...thumbnail.

UIImage *img = [UIImage imageWithCGImage:[myAsset thumbnail]];

To get the full Res image you have to go through the default representation.

UIImage *img = [UIImage imageWithCGImage:[[myAsset defaultRepresentation] fullResolutionImage]

Hope this helps
