file type elements are not added in $_POST variable. There is a different super global available for uploaded files i.e. $_FILES

First thing, make sure you have added enctype="multipart/form-data" attribute in your form otherwise uploaded file elements will not be received in $_FILES

    <form method="post" action="process.php" enctype="multipart/form-data">
       <input type="file" id="lcimage" name="image" />
    </form>

And for adding this file in the email you can use this code.

$mail->AddAttachment($_FILES['image']['tmp_name'],
                         $_FILES['image']['name']);
