Hello Please find the code below......

You can get FirstName,LastName ,Image of the person and MobileNumber from your iPhone addressbook

Add Button to your ViewController and add this code to your button click event.

-(IBAction)btnGetNameClicked:(id)sender {
      // creating the picker
     ABPeoplePickerNavigationController *picker = [[ABPeoplePickerNavigationController alloc] init];
     // place the delegate of the picker to the controll
     picker.peoplePickerDelegate = self;

     // showing the picker
     [self presentModalViewController:picker animated:YES];
    // releasing
    [picker release];
 }

 -(BOOL)peoplePickerNavigationController: (ABPeoplePickerNavigationController *)peoplePicker shouldContinueAfterSelectingPerson:(ABRecordRef)person {

     // setting the first name
     lblFirstName.text = (NSString *)ABRecordCopyValue(person, kABPersonFirstNameProperty);

     // setting the last name
     lblLastName.text = (NSString *)ABRecordCopyValue(person, kABPersonLastNameProperty);   

    ABMultiValueRef multi = ABRecordCopyValue(person, kABPersonPhoneProperty);
    lblNumber.text = (NSString*)ABMultiValueCopyValueAtIndex(multi, 0);
    if(ABPersonHasImageData(person)){
         imgPerson.image = [UIImage imageWithData:(NSData *)ABPersonCopyImageData(person)];
    } else {
         imgPerson.image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"NotAvailable.png"];
    }

    // remove the controller
    [self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];

    return NO;
 }
