I am starting code here for laravel image upload

Step: 1
Create controller, model and migration file using below command

php artisan make:model Image -mcr

-above command will create 3 files into after once you apply command

I)create a controller file in app/Http/Controller/ImageController.php
II)create model into app/Image.php
III)create also migration file into database/migration/database/migrations/2020_07_04_112145_create_images_table.php

Route: 2 Modify migration file like below
this file path will found into database/migrations.

<?php

use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;

class CreateImagesTable extends Migration
{
    /**
     * Run the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function up()
    {
        Schema::create('images', function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->id();
            $table->string('image');
            $table->timestamps();
        });
    }

    /**
     * Reverse the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function down()
    {
        Schema::dropIfExists('images');
    }
}

Route: 3 Run migration using below command in your terminal(ubuntu) or command promt(window)

php artisan:migrate

Route: 4 create route into routes/web.php file

Route::get('upload-image','ImageController@index');
Route::post('image-save','ImageController@store')->name('image-save');

Route: 5 Modify controller & model file like below code

model file path -- app/Image.php

<?php

namespace App;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class Image extends Model
{
    protected $guarded = [];
}

In Laravel, fillable attributes are used to specify those fields which are to be mass assigned. Guarded attributes are used to specify those fields which are not mass assignable.

controller file path -- app/Http/Controller/ImageController.php

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use App\Image;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Validator;
use Session;

class ImageController extends Controller
{
    /**
     * Display a listing of the resource.
     *
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
     */
    public function index()
    {
        return view('image');
    }


    /**
     * Store a newly created resource in storage.
     *
     * @param  \Illuminate\Http\Request  $request
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
     */
    public function store(Request $request)
    {
        try {
            $validator = Validator::make($request->all(), [
                'image' => 'required|image|mimes:jpeg,png,jpg,gif,svg|max:2048',
            ]);

            if ($validator->passes()) {
                $input = $request->all();
                $input['image'] = time().'.'.$request->image->getClientOriginalExtension();
                $request->image->move(public_path('image'), $input['image']);
                Image::create($input);
                Session::flash('success','Successfully file inserted');
                return redirect('upload-image');
            }else{
                Session::flash('error',$validator->errors()->all()[0]);
                return redirect('upload-image');
            }
        } catch (\Exception $e) {
            Session::flash('error',$e->getMessage());
            return redirect('upload-image');
            return response()->json(['status' => false,'msg'=> $e->getMessage()]);
        }
    }
}

In the above controller, you can show I am using try{}catch(){} and also using validator coz of catch the error if any function error it will catch into catch function and it there is any error into validation than it will pass into else condition of validation

Route: 6 create blade file which is defined into upload-image get method route of index function

folder path -- resources/views/image.blade.php
