Winforms: How to upload a picture into SQL Server database using C#

I want to upload images to my SQL Server database. I have two buttons , One picture box. With the browse button, I am able to select the file from disk, and it is displayed into the picturebox.

The problem is that I am not able to save the picture from picturebox into the database.

Please help me out with the code. Appreciate it.

You can save the image directly from its path (you have it already).

Try this:

    byte[] img = File.ReadAllBytes("your image path");

    mySqlCommand = "INSERT INTO MyTable(Image) VALUES(@Image)";//mySqlCommand is a SqlCommand, and @Image is a parameter 
    mySqlCommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Image", img);
    mySqlCommand.ExecuteNonQuery();
