To save a UIImage to file do the following

NSString *path = [NSHomeDirectory() stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"Documents/img.jpg"];

//Save
NSData* imageData = UIImageJPEGRepresentation(img, 1.0);
[imageData writeToFile:path atomically:YES];

//Load
NSData* imageData = [NSData dataWithContentsOfFile:path];
UIImage *image = [UIImage imageWithData:imageData];

You can also save the image in iPhone file system by converting image to data and save data to file.

NSData *data = UIImagePNGRepresentation(yourImage);
[data writeToFile:(NSString *)path atomically:(BOOL)useAuxiliaryFile]
