Robert Holden is a self-declared stateless photographer, a journeyer and an environmentalist. His work revolves around the humanistic idea of travel. The journey and the encounter are his main themes. His photographic approach is subjective and emotional. Many of his personal projects are based on reality but often combine a personal narrative, and are "… symbolic of today's evolutionary development, straddling between reportage photography and art with a social message."

In 2011, his series The Treehouse was installed as a non-profit exhibition of large-scale prints on building façades in DUMBO, Brooklyn, curated by Vamos Architects in conjunction with the New York Photo Festival.

He contributes regularly, with his editorial work, to select international publications.

Travel photography

Since 2007, Robert Holden's style has evolved from documenting specific editorial assignments to photographing his travel experience through an intuitive, non-descriptive and narrative style. This is most present in the free hand photographic editorials for Air France Magazine, when he travelled with French writers such as Elisabeth Barillé, Stephane Audeguy, François Simon and Marc Lambron.

His photographic style—along with that of a few other photographers—has led to a visual redefinition of travel photography in France "… allowing us to soar in thought. They are heirs of Saul Leiter and Wong Kar-wai, the offspring of still and moving image, and are born out of poetry and disillusionment."

Encounters

Holden approaches the human encounter In the same vein as he does the voyage. A believer in the multiple image, when working on editorial assignments with distinguished personalities he documents these meetings through a series that stretches beyond the single portrait.
