Will this tripod allow for vertical shots?

I am looking at something like this

Also if I want to move the position do I just move the camera?
I'm used to having one with a pan handle..
Is it better to have a pan handle?

Help...
I know I need to go into a store but that just isn't an option.. well I'm going into one today but it's just a film processing place i'm not sure what if any tripods they will have hopefully some so I can see..

Yes, with a 3-way head, the top platform (where the camera sits) flips 90 degrees to move the camera from landscape to portrait orientation.
