Considering the experimental constraints given by CMS collaboration at $\sqrt{s} = 8$ TeV on the strength of top quark flavour-changing neutral-current (FCNC) couplings $tq\gamma$ and $tqg$, we investigate the production of top quark in association with a photon and carry out a full simulation for the signals $\ell\nu b\gamma$ and $jjb\gamma$ at 14 TeV LHC. In our numerical analysis, the contributions of single top production with a photon radiation off the top decay products are also included. The discovery potential for anomalous couplings $tq\gamma$ and $tqg$ with an integrated luminosity of 100 fb$^{-1}$ are examined in detail.
