Is it correct to say that conformal mappings (not just the class of linear transformations) preserve orientation?

We know that conformal mappings preserve angles and orientation of any two intersecting curves in the z-plane.

Is this fact alone enough to conclude that the region (domain?) to the right of some clockwise-oriented closed curve will again be to the right of the image curve in the w-plane?

This would be as convenient as symmetry arguments of, say, LFTs, but I am not used to using orientation-preserving arguments, so I just wanted to be sure.

Thanks,
