Publish somewhere else except c drive (That have permission)

Better define a global variable in your Web config which will hold the path you want to save image .

That is how you will be able to change the path anytime you want.

Here is how you can set in web.config

<appSettings>
     <add key="ImagePath" value="YourImageSavingPath"/>
  </appSettings>

Then retrieve it using

 path=System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["ImagePath"];
