I think the rule should like so-
'image' => 'required|image|mimes:jpeg,png,jpg,gif,svg|max:2048'
Can be helpful this tutorial- http://itsolutionstuff.com/post/laravel-53-image-upload-with-validation-exampleexample.html

5.3 image validation only if image is uploaded
In 5.3, How can i validate an image only if its uploaded.
a rule like 'pic_file' => 'mimes:jpg,jpeg,bmp,png|max:10000',
would validate pic_file only if its uploaded in 5.2
but in 5.3, i am getting error as image extension is wrong eventhough i didn't upload image.
how can i make validation optional? or how i can add a rule dynamically in Requests (not in controller)
Thanks.

that makes image required, i want image to be optional and if its uploaded then it should have only allowed extensions.

Ok, what I meant that...
'image' => 'image|mimes:jpeg,png,jpg,gif,svg'

Can you show you code?

Laravel treat empty strings as null. when you provide nothing it treat its as null and validations work. So you need to provide nullable validator also like this 'profile_pic'=>'nullable | image'
