ImageSourceConverter error for Source=null

@AresAvatar is right in suggesting you use a ValueConverter, but that implementation does not help the situation. This does:

public class NullImageConverter :IValueConverter
{
    public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)
    {
        if (value == null)
            return DependencyProperty.UnsetValue;
        return value;
    }

    public object ConvertBack(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)
    {
        // According to https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.data.ivalueconverter.convertback(v=vs.110).aspx#Anchor_1
        // (kudos Scott Chamberlain), if you do not support a conversion 
        // back you should return a Binding.DoNothing or a 
        // DependencyProperty.UnsetValue
        return Binding.DoNothing;
        // Original code:
        // throw new NotImplementedException();
    }
}

Returning DependencyProperty.UnsetValue also addresses the performance issues from throwing (and ignoring) all those exceptions. Returning a new BitmapSource(uri) would also get rid of the exceptions, but there is still a performance hit (and it isn’t necessary).

Of course, you’ll also need the plumbing:

In resources:

<local:NullImageConverter x:Key="nullImageConverter"/>

Your image:

<Image Source="{Binding Path=ImagePath, Converter={StaticResource nullImageConverter}}"/>
