Here is how I solved it in swift 3: This captures all the nodes in your scene: Note: in below code represents the view it is capturing from. You may want to update it with your view in project.

func captureScreen() -> UIImage {
    UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(yourview.bounds.size, true, 0)

    yourview.drawHierarchy(in: yourview.bounds, afterScreenUpdates: true)


    let image = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext()!
    UIGraphicsEndImageContext()
    return image
}
