If you're concerned about that, you can concat your JPEG with a few bytes from /dev/random and you'll get the security of whichever is stronger. In practice none of this will be your weakest link.

It is possible that using a JPEG with its known bytes could make the final effort weaker than if you just used /dev/random.
