Unfortunately, there is no way to repeat Selenium javascript trick with sendKeys with native mobile application:
you need literally do everything via UI - open image selection, select image and etc.
The only thing that Appium can assist with is to upload files to device, so your device can be cleaned and populated only during the test.
