Maybe the answer Jimhill gave in this thread answers your questions, it's pretty much the same: http://laravel.io/forum/02-17-2014-how-do-you-save-image-to-database-and-display-it-on-website

He writes:

$img_data = file_get_contents($img_path);
$type = pathinfo($img_path, PATHINFO_EXTENSION);
$base64 = $base64_encode($img_data);

// save $base64 & $type into your datastore
