Saving images in .NET Maui using Sqlite

[mooshi]

I'm attempting to develop a .NET MAUI application that enables users to take pictures and save them in an SQLite database. I understand how to capture images using the device's camera, but I've encountered an issue and I'm uncertain about how to save the images into the database.

The following function captures a photo and saves it to the device. However, instead of saving it to the device, I need to save it in an SQLite database:

public async void TakePhoto()
{
    if (MediaPicker.Default.IsCaptureSupported)
    {
        FileResult photo = await MediaPicker.Default.CapturePhotoAsync();

        if (photo != null)
        {
            // save the file into local storage
            string localFilePath = Path.Combine(FileSystem.CacheDirectory, photo.FileName);

            using Stream sourceStream = await photo.OpenReadAsync();
            using FileStream localFileStream = File.OpenWrite(localFilePath);

            await sourceStream.CopyToAsync(localFileStream);
        }
    }

}
