File upload

I have the following code to upload an image to the database. My problem is when I do this, other fields don't get populated. Do I have to do $input['field1'] for every field I have?

public function store(Request $request) { if($file = $request->file('photo')) {

        $name = time() . $file->getClientOriginalName();

        $file->move('images', $name);

        //$photo = Photo::create(['file'=>$name]);

        $input['photo'] = $name;
    }


    Profile::create($input);
}

Have you setup the $fillable array?

personally I would probably use $request and explicitly set the photo name

$profile = new Profile;
$profile->fill($request->all());
$profile->photo = $name;
$profile->save();
