Portrait images uploaded to media library appear rotated in landscape/horizontal format. Unable to edit.

[johndewey]

When uploading vertical/portrait format images to the media library, many (though not all) are automatically rotated 90 degrees and appear in landscape/horizontal format. Even if I click into the image, hit edit and rotate it back to vertical, the edit does not seem to stick, and the image will still appear on its side if dropped into the gridder.

Please help!
