Here is another way to save images using intervention package on storage path with desired name. (using Storage::putFileAs method )

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

        $image      = $request->file('photo');
        $image_name = time() . '.' . $image->extension();

        $image = Image::make($request->file('photo'))
            ->resize(120, 120, function ($constraint) {
                $constraint->aspectRatio();
             });

        //here you can define any directory name whatever you want, if dir is not exist it will created automatically.
        Storage::putFileAs('public/images/1/smalls/' . $image_name, (string)$image->encode('png', 95), $image_name);
    }
}
