Save image to database MVC3

I have a link like this: C:\folder\folder\image.jpg . How can I save image to database in SQL Server?

If it was a HttpPostedFileBase I would knew how to save it, but now I have only a link.

Thank you.

Example from msdn social:

table:

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[FileStoreDemo](

                [id] [int] NOT NULL,

                [name] [nvarchar](100) NOT NULL,

                [content] [varbinary](max) NULL,

                CONSTRAINT [pk_filestoredemo_id] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED ([id] ASC))

code:

string filename = Server.MapPath("/Content/Desert.jpg")
using (fooEntities fe = new fooEntities())

{

    FileStoreDemo fsd = fe.FileStoreDemoes.CreateObject();



    fsd.name = new FileInfo(filename).Name;

    fsd.content = File.ReadAllBytes(filename);

    fe.FileStoreDemoes.AddObject(fsd);



    fe.SaveChanges();

}

   [HttpPost]
        public ActionResult Create(string fileTitle)
        {
            try
            {
                HttpPostedFileBase file = Request.Files[0];
                byte[] imageSize = new byte[file.ContentLength];
                file.InputStream.Read(imageSize, 0, (int)file.ContentLength);
                Image image = new Image()
                {
                    Name = file.FileName.Split('\\').Last(),
                    Size = file.ContentLength,
                    Title = fileTitle,
                    ID = 1,
                    Image1 = imageSize
                };
                db.Images.AddObject(image);
                db.SaveChanges();
                return RedirectToAction("Detail");
            }
            catch(Exception e)
            {
                ModelState.AddModelError("uploadError", e);
            }
            return View();
        }
