I solved this finally!

I had another .conf file in my pool.d directory that had upload_max_filesize value in it. I was diligently changing the value in this conf file in addition to the php.ini file.

php_admin_value[upload_max_filesize] = 64M #comment

I also had what I thought was a comment in the same line. I suspected this was the issue. Removed the comment. Restarted php and nginx. Voila. I can now upload images!

Thanks for your help @angelajholden & @jmstudio

I’m posting a portion of my php.ini file so I can get a second set of eyes on it. It may be a little thing I’m not seeing. When I change the value of upload_max_filesize near the bottom, the value also changes on my WordPress Upload New Media page.

First, your second question: yes, I’m 1000000% sure I’m editing the correct php.ini file. I first changed it to 100M and saw the change on screen. Then, I changed to 64M and saw it change again to 64 MB on screen.
For your first question: I looked in the conf.d directory and there are a lot of files. Do you know which one I should look at? Here’s the list:

10-mysqlnd.ini
10-opcache.ini
10-pdo.ini
15-xml.ini
20-calendar.ini
20-ctype.ini
20-curl.ini
20-dom.ini
20-exif.ini
20-fileinfo.ini
20-ftp.ini
20-gd.ini
20-gettext.ini
20-iconv.ini
20-json.ini
20-mbstring.ini
20-mcrypt.ini
20-mysqli.ini
20-pdo_mysql.ini
20-pdo_sqlite.ini
20-phar.ini
20-posix.ini
20-readline.ini
20-shmop.ini
20-simplexml.ini
20-sockets.ini
20-sqlite3.ini
20-sysvmsg.ini
20-sysvsem.ini
20-sysvshm.ini
20-tokenizer.ini
20-wddx.ini
20-xmlreader.ini
20-xmlrpc.ini
20-xmlwriter.ini
20-xsl.ini

Thank you. Yes, I have all those in my php.ini file. I can tell they are correct because the page where I upload the images actually says right there

“Maximum upload file size: 64 MB.”

And, I’ve loaded up phpinfo() and it says this:

Configuration File (php.ini) Path 	/etc/php/7.0/fpm
Loaded Configuration File 	    /etc/php/7.0/fpm/php.ini
Scan this dir for additional .ini files   /etc/php/7.0/fpm/conf.d

That is definitely the php.ini file I’m working with.
