Introduction

Our photography plays a secondary but important role in the way we communicate. It talks of the people we serve, the lift IONITY provides and the story of our brand.

Our photography has one defining style that allows our brand to coherently link all types – lifestyle, product, portraits, etc. Images should always be captured from a low angle so that they create a visual upwards lift.
