For over 50 years, Robert Harding has been the trusted photo agency for professional travel and cultural photographers worldwide.
We don’t chase volume — we curate excellence.
✨ From Film to Digital
It all began in the early 1970s when Robert Harding set out with a collection of his own travel photos — capturing the people, culture and landscapes of the world.
His dream? To create a visual encyclopaedia of our planet.
From a small London office filled with film slides and light boxes, we’ve grown into a global agency representing thousands of photographers across 200 countries — still guided by the same passion for quality and authenticity.
💾 Adapting Through Change
When the world went digital, we didn’t stand still.
We scanned over 100,000 transparencies — preserving decades of travel history — and built one of the most respected online image collections in the industry.
Today, our website connects creatives, publishers, and brands with inspiring imagery that celebrates global culture and diversity.
🌏 Curating Excellence — Not Volume
Every image in our collection is handpicked for its story, quality, and emotional impact.
From festivals and wildlife to architecture and everyday life — we help the world see the world.
