Try this:

using(var stream = new MemoryStream(bytes))
{
   //bytes is byte[] containing the image data
   var image = Image.FromStream(stream);
   image.Save(File.OpenWrite("MyImage.jpeg", ImageFormat.Jpeg);
}

Remember to dispose the stream and the image. – Lasse V. Karlsen Dec 03 '14 at 10:51
True! I didn't include that, but it is very important! – Ricardo Peres Dec 03 '14 at 10:56
Also, do replace File.OpenWrite() for a new Stream, like MemoryStream, if you don't want to write the file to the filesystem. – Ricardo Peres Dec 03 '14 at 10:57
Seems like System.Drawing namespace is not available in WP8 and hence, we cannot do image.Save() – tavier Dec 03 '14 at 12:21
