You can't get image as you need to use imagePickerController's delegate method for pick selected image.
This method called automatically while you select image
func imagePickerController(picker: UIImagePickerController, didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo info: [NSObject : AnyObject]) {
self.dismissViewControllerAnimated(true, completion: nil)
let selectedImage = info[UIImagePickerControllerOriginalImage] as! UIImage
imgSelected1.image = selectedImage
}
