iPhone image orientation wrong when resizing with SkiaSharp

Question

I'm using the SKBitmap.Resize() method in SkiaSharp on a Xamarin.Forms project to resize images for display. The problem I'm encountering is when taking a photo on iOS, when a photo is taken in portrait, the image is displayed with the right side up. Taking a photo on Android, importing from the photo gallery on both an Android and iOS device maintains orientation, but taking a photo in iOS does not. If I don't resize the image using SkiaSharp (just display the image without any resizing), then the image displays with the proper orientation. However that is not a solution as the images need to be resized. Below is my code -

private byte[] GetResizedImageData(string imageName)
    {
        float resizeFactor = 0.5f;
        var filePath = PathUtil.GetImagePath(imageName);
        var ogBitmap = SKBitmap.Decode(filePath);

        float fWidth = ogBitmap.Width * resizeFactor;
        int width = (int) Math.Round(fWidth);

        float fHeight = ogBitmap.Height * resizeFactor;
        int height = (int) Math.Round(fHeight);

        if (height >= 4096 || width >= 4096)
        {
            width = width * (int)resizeFactor;
            height = height * (int)resizeFactor;
        }

        var scaledBitmap = ogBitmap.Resize(new SKImageInfo( width, height), SKBitmapResizeMethod.Box);
        var image = SKImage.FromBitmap(scaledBitmap);
        var data = image.Encode(SKEncodedImageFormat.Jpeg, 100);

        return data.ToArray();
    }

PathUtil.GetImagePath() is just a helper to get platform-specific paths for where the photos are being stored.

For those with the same issue I did the following and would gladly accept input on improvements.

        public static SKBitmap HandleOrientation(SKBitmap bitmap, SKCodecOrigin orientation)
    {
        SKBitmap rotated;
        switch (orientation)
        {
            case SKCodecOrigin.BottomRight:

                using (var surface = new SKCanvas(bitmap))
                {
                    surface.RotateDegrees(180, bitmap.Width / 2, bitmap.Height / 2);
                    surface.DrawBitmap(bitmap.Copy(), 0, 0);
                }

                return bitmap;

            case SKCodecOrigin.RightTop:                                                 
                rotated = new SKBitmap(bitmap.Height, bitmap.Width);

                using (var surface = new SKCanvas(rotated))
                {
                    surface.Translate(rotated.Width, 0);
                    surface.RotateDegrees(90);
                    surface.DrawBitmap(bitmap, 0, 0);
                }

                return rotated;

            case SKCodecOrigin.LeftBottom:
                rotated = new SKBitmap(bitmap.Height, bitmap.Width);

                using (var surface = new SKCanvas(rotated))
                {
                    surface.Translate(0, rotated.Height);
                    surface.RotateDegrees(270);
                    surface.DrawBitmap(bitmap, 0, 0);
                }

                return rotated; 

            default:                       
                return bitmap;            
        }

And then use the following to get the original orientation.

            // TODO: Improve this.. I do not know how to "reset" 
            // the inputStream, so new it up twice. :/
            using (var inputStream = new SKManagedStream(imageIn))
            {
                using (var codec = SKCodec.Create(inputStream))
                {
                    orientation = codec.Origin;
                }
            }

....... Then

SKBitmap orientedWExif = HandleOrientation(resized, orientation);
