[c#] Resize image proportionally with MaxHeight and MaxWidth constraints

Much longer solution, but accounts for the following scenarios:

  1. Is the image smaller than the bounding box?
  2. Is the Image and the Bounding Box square?
  3. Is the Image square and the bounding box isn't
  4. Is the image wider and taller than the bounding box
  5. Is the image wider than the bounding box
  6. Is the image taller than the bounding box

    private Image ResizePhoto(FileInfo sourceImage, int desiredWidth, int desiredHeight)
    {
        //throw error if bouning box is to small
        if (desiredWidth < 4 || desiredHeight < 4)
            throw new InvalidOperationException("Bounding Box of Resize Photo must be larger than 4X4 pixels.");            
        var original = Bitmap.FromFile(sourceImage.FullName);
    
        //store image widths in variable for easier use
        var oW = (decimal)original.Width;
        var oH = (decimal)original.Height;
        var dW = (decimal)desiredWidth;
        var dH = (decimal)desiredHeight;
    
        //check if image already fits
        if (oW < dW && oH < dH)
            return original; //image fits in bounding box, keep size (center with css) If we made it bigger it would stretch the image resulting in loss of quality.
    
        //check for double squares
        if (oW == oH && dW == dH)
        {
            //image and bounding box are square, no need to calculate aspects, just downsize it with the bounding box
            Bitmap square = new Bitmap(original, (int)dW, (int)dH);
            original.Dispose();
            return square;

        //check original image is square
        if (oW == oH)
        {
            //image is square, bounding box isn't.  Get smallest side of bounding box and resize to a square of that center the image vertically and horizontally with Css there will be space on one side.
            int smallSide = (int)Math.Min(dW, dH);
            Bitmap square = new Bitmap(original, smallSide, smallSide);
            original.Dispose();
            return square;
        }
    
        //not dealing with squares, figure out resizing within aspect ratios            
        if (oW > dW && oH > dH) //image is wider and taller than bounding box
        {
            var r = Math.Min(dW, dH) / Math.Min(oW, oH); //two dimensions so figure out which bounding box dimension is the smallest and which original image dimension is the smallest, already know original image is larger than bounding box
            var nH = oH * r; //will downscale the original image by an aspect ratio to fit in the bounding box at the maximum size within aspect ratio.
            var nW = oW * r;
            var resized = new Bitmap(original, (int)nW, (int)nH);

            {
                var r = dW / oW; //one dimension (width) so calculate the aspect ratio between the bounding box width and original image width
                var nW = oW * r; //downscale image by r to fit in the bounding box...
                var nH = oH * r;
                var resized = new Bitmap(original, (int)nW, (int)nH);
