Some things that should be addressed:

PaginaHolder.Source = BitmapFromUri(new Uri(pad, UriKind.Relative));

Specifically:

new Uri(pad, UriKind.Relative)

There is no Uri constructor that takes nullable bool as a parameter. Use:

PaginaHolder.Source = new BitmapImage( new Uri( d.FileName ) );

And here is a full working example:

var d = new OpenFileDialog();
d.Title = "Select a picture";
d.Filter = "All supported graphics|*.jpg;*.jpeg;*.png|JPEG (*.jpg;*.jpeg)|*.jpg;*.jpeg|Portable Network Graphic (*.png)|*.png";
if( d.ShowDialog() == true )
{
    PaginaHolder.Source = new BitmapImage( new Uri( d.FileName ) );
}

You can also use your BitmapFromUri method:

PaginaHolder.Source = BitmapFromUri( new Uri( d.FileName ) );

I convert a pdf Document to seperate images with a converter that works fine.. When i open a new PDF Document my convert deletes the previous first image and then adds a the new one to the map.. This works fine but my application keeps showing my previous image, how does this can when the previous image is allready gone out of my debug map..? This is my code:

Microsoft.Win32.OpenFileDialog d = new Microsoft.Win32.OpenFileDialog();
d.FileName = "Document";//begin map 
d.DefaultExt = ".pdf";
d.Filter = "PDF Files(*.pdf)|*.pdf";
Nullable<bool> pad = d.ShowDialog();
pdfPad = d.FileName;
File.Delete(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory+"1.jpg");
pdfconverter.convertPDF(1, pdfPad);
pdfAantalPaginas = pdfconverter.getAantalPaginas(pdfPad);
Uri test = new Uri(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory + "1.jpg");
PaginaHolder.Source = BitmapFromUri(test);
PaginaHolder.Source.Freeze();
