You can use a clipping path - something like this:

<Image Source="myimage.jpg" Width="300" Height="300" >
  <Image.Clip>
   <PathGeometry >
    <PathFigure x:Name="pf" StartPoint="150,50" IsClosed="True" >
     <ArcSegment IsLargeArc="True" Point="250,150" Size="141,141" SweepDirection="Clockwise" />
     <LineSegment Point="150,250" />
     <LineSegment Point="50,150" />
     <ArcSegment IsLargeArc="True" Point="50,150" Size="141,141" SweepDirection="Clockwise" />
    </PathFigure>
   </Image.Clip>
 </Image>

(you'll need to vary the exact path to suit your image).

Alternatively you can use an opacity mask in the shape of a heart.

I would recommend just creating a heart in Photoshop or something with the center transparent and the outsides a solid color. Then just draw the heart onto your image. This way you don't have to deal with clipping and you can have more control over the shape.
