Can't I crop a landscape photo in portrait mode?

I want to crop a portrait orientation photo from a landscape orientated photo. For example, the current pic is 4x3, and I want to crop a 3x4 section to make a new Portrait orientation shot. Surely this is possible, right? It's a pretty basic and standard practice. I can't find out how to do it in the IOS8 photo app on my iPhone 6. Please help!

Thank you - but this only works if I don't want to constrain the crop. So I can choose any free size, but not specifically a 3x4 or any of the constrained crop options the app gives us (3:2, 5:3 etc). The constrained crop options are dictated by the orientation of the original pic. It's really odd that it's not an option to change the orientation.
