In iOS 10 you need permission to access photoLibrary or camera by adding below keys to your plist and you need to use the proper delegate method.

To Access Photo Library:

@IBAction func library(_ sender: UIButton) {

    if UIImagePickerController.isSourceTypeAvailable(UIImagePickerControllerSourceType.photoLibrary) {
        let imagePicker = UIImagePickerController()
        imagePicker.delegate = self
        imagePicker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceType.photoLibrary
        imagePicker.allowsEditing = true
        self.present(imagePicker, animated: true, completion: nil)
      } 
    }

To Access Device Camera:

@IBAction func camera(_ sender: UIButton) {

    if UIImagePickerController.isSourceTypeAvailable(UIImagePickerControllerSourceType.camera) {    
        imagePicker.delegate = self
        imagePicker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceType.camera;
        imagePicker.allowsEditing = false
        self.present(imagePicker, animated: true, completion: nil)
        }
    }

To Pick and display Image:

 func imagePickerController(_ picker: UIImagePickerController, didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo info: [String : Any]) {
    if let image = info[UIImagePickerControllerOriginalImage] as? UIImage {
    ImageDisplay.image = image
    }
    picker.dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil);
 }
