This is a real pain, and is caused by the EXIF data that is (sometimes) stored with the jpeg-format in which the iPhone takes pictures.

I wrote a function to take care of it:

/**
 * Orientate an image, based on its exif rotation state
 * 
 * @param  Intervention\Image\Image $image
 * @param  integer $orientation Image exif orientation
 * @return Intervention\Image\Image
 */
function orientate($image, $orientation)
{
    switch ($orientation) {

        // 888888
        // 88    
        // 8888  
        // 88    
        // 88    
        case 1:
            return $image;

        // 888888
        //     88
        //   8888
        //     88
        //     88
        case 2:
            return $image->flip('h');


        //     88
        //     88
        //   8888
        //     88
        // 888888
        case 3:
            return $image->rotate(180);
        
        // 88    
        // 88    
        // 8888  
        // 88
        // 888888
        case 4:
            return $image->rotate(180)->flip('h');

        // 8888888888
        // 88  88    
        // 88        
        case 5:
            return $image->rotate(-90)->flip('h');

        // 88        
        // 88  88    
        // 8888888888
        case 6:
            return $image->rotate(-90);

        //         88
        //     88  88
        // 8888888888
        case 7:
            return $image->rotate(-90)->flip('v');

        // 8888888888
        //     88  88
        //         88
        case 8:
            return $image->rotate(90);

        default:
            return $image;
    }
}

The usage of this would then be something like this, supposing you have an Intervention image named $image:

// Check if the image is a jpg
$isJpg = $image->mime === 'image/jpg' || $image->mime === 'image/jpeg';

// If the image is jpg and has orientation data, make sure we orientate correctly before uploading
if($isJpg && $image->exif('Orientation'))
    $image = orientate($image, $image->exif('Orientation'));

// Horray! Your image should now be correctly rotated!

I hope this helps!

@lieberkind : Thanks that worked perfectly for me.

Where did you place your function orientate at?

Got it to work! Thank you so much for sharing this code... and for helping me understand helper functions. Learning new things all the time!

Intervention has a native method for this.

\Intervention\Image\Image::make($path)->orientate();

Thanks it's work like a charm.
