There is the swift version for the checked solution :

private func imageByCroppingImage(image : UIImage, size : CGSize) -> UIImage{
        var refWidth : CGFloat = CGFloat(CGImageGetWidth(image.CGImage))
        var refHeight : CGFloat = CGFloat(CGImageGetHeight(image.CGImage))

        var x = (refWidth - size.width) / 2
        var y = (refHeight - size.height) / 2

        let cropRect = CGRectMake(x, y, size.height, size.width)
        let imageRef = CGImageCreateWithImageInRect(image.CGImage, cropRect)

        let cropped : UIImage = UIImage(CGImage: imageRef, scale: 0, orientation: image.imageOrientation)!


        return cropped
    }
