Thanks Jaykay832 :-D

Your answer was straight forward.

double width = image1.ActualWidth;
            double height = image1.ActualHeight;
            RenderTargetBitmap bmpCopied = new RenderTargetBitmap((int)Math.Round(width), (int)Math.Round(height), 96, 96, PixelFormats.Default);
            DrawingVisual dv = new DrawingVisual();
            using (DrawingContext dc = dv.RenderOpen())
            {
                VisualBrush vb = new VisualBrush(image1);
                dc.DrawRectangle(vb, null, new Rect(new Point(), new Size(width, height)));
            }
            bmpCopied.Render(dv);
            Clipboard.SetImage(bmpCopied);
