Try:

C#

byte[] bytes = File.ReadAllBytes(pathToFile);
using (SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(strConnect))
    {
    con.Open();
    using (SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("UPDATE ImagesData SET imagebinary=@BD WHERE SpecialCode=@SC", con))
        {
        cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@SC", specialCodeIdentifier);
        cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@BD", bytes);
        cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
        }
    }
