I created a demo for you and hopefully you can compare the code and figure out the issue.

I guess you might forget to inject $filter module. Please take a look a the demo.

<div ng-app="myApp" ng-controller="ctrl">
    <div ng-repeat="image in images">{{image}}</div>
    <button ng-click="order('0')">By orgName</button>
    <button ng-click="order('1')">By sortOrder</button>
</div>

var app = angular.module('myApp', []);

function ctrl($scope, $filter) {
    $scope.images = [{
        orgName: 'B',
        sortOrder: 111
    }, {
        orgName: 'A',
        sortOrder: 12
    }, {
        orgName: 'D',
        sortOrder: 13
    }, {
        orgName: 'C',
        sortOrder: 14
    }];

    $scope.order = function (order) {
        if (order == '0') {
            $scope.images = $filter('orderBy')($scope.images, 'orgName');
        } else {
            $scope.images = $filter('orderBy')($scope.images, 'sortOrder');
        }
    }
}
