To get the bytes for the image, do the following. Note: if you're not using JPEG, change the format.

byte[] bytes;

using (var stream = new MemoryStream())
{
  image.Save(stream, ImageFormat.Jpeg);
  stream.Flush();

  bytes = stream.ToArray();
}

This assumes image is a variable you have previously initialized with the image you want to save.

After this, you just pass the value of bytes as a parameter into your SQL INSERT command.
