How to get user name from belongsTo collection?

Question

Laravel

In the controller

public function getUserPhotos($id)
    {
        $photos = Photo::with('user')->where('user_id', $id)->get();
        $user = User::find($id);
        return view('user.userphotos', [
            'photos' => $photos,
            'user' => $user
        ]);
    }

If I pass foreach through $photos, then I can get the username, but if I just want to display $photos->user->name, then it does not.
Because of this, you have to do this $user = User::find($id); and makes another request to the database.
Whether it is possible to make so that not to climb once again in basis receiving username?

Answer 1

Well, like this:

$user = User::with('photos')->where('id', $id)->first();

return \view('....', ['photos' => $user->photos, 'user' => $user]);

Answer 2

$photos is an array, it does not have a name property, only the elements of this array have this property.
So the only way is with a separate receipt of the user, but you can remove the user selection for the photo.
