Read the BitmapImage from file and rewrite it with a MemoryStream:

MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream();
BitmapImage bi = new BitmapImage();
byte[] bytArray = File.ReadAllBytes(@"test.jpg");
ms.Write(bytArray, 0, bytArray.Length);ms.Position = 0;
bi.BeginInit();
bi.StreamSource = ms;
bi.EndInit();
image.Source = bi;
