 When a user upoads a photo from an iPhone 5s (not sure about iPhone 6) in
 portrait mode the image is rotated 90 degrees left, and the user must
 login to WP admin to edit the image and rotate it 90 degrees right for
 proper orientation. This issue is detailed in this support
 [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-rotation-issue-for-iphone-5s-
 portrait-photos forum post] a year ago. Somehow WP needs to detect the
 meta data from the image and not rotate the image.
