You could create a new material and apply the image. In the material attributes window take a look at one of the standard materials such as Common Bond that have a photo image attached.

In the 3D window you can reorient the image.

It would be best to rotate the image in a photo editor like photoshop first, but not necessary.

There is a 'Picture' object in the standard INT ArchiCAD library under 'Furnishing'>'Decoration' that can display an individual picture vertically.

Dwight has also uploaded his 'Parapicture' object to the depository, which is similar but has more features. It's at the bottom of this list -

These may be more convenient to adjust, depending on what you need it for.
