I know I'm not helping with the issue at hand, but I got a suggestion: I do something similar. Since you seem to control your filename (not a user uploaded file) then you could just set a boolean field on your controller: image. Then your "if" will just deal with your controller.
I was just thinking that it's got to be better to control the image's existence manually through the database than to check the disk for every single file.
