Something like this you can get image in base64.

fileChange(e) {
    /* any way to get the object input */
    var file    = document.querySelector('input[type=file]');
    let reader = new FileReader();
    if(file.files[0]) {
        reader.onload = () => {
        imgBase64 = reader.result;
        console.log(reader.result);
        //your request
      }
      reader.readAsDataURL(file[0]);
    }
}
