I would store the paths of the images in Core Data along with other metadata you want to store about each image. Your app will create a Documents directory for you. You can query the location of the default directory with NSFileManager. When users take a picture or select one from their Photo Library, you can save them to your Documents directory.

There are a few older videos covering NSFileManager, that you can watch to get the basic idea on using it:
