The 16-year-old shared some huge news of his recent success, revealing he’d been nominated for the People’s Choice Award for the Wildlife Photographer of the Year.

Although Robert has long been a keen photographer and works with mother Terri and sister Bindi at Australia Zoo, the teenager sure knows how to keep busy.

Earlier this year, sources revealed Robert also had a music career in his sights and was hoping his good friend and talented Aussie singer, Amy Shark, could put in a good word for him.

Robert has shown off his musical talents in the past, including sharing a snap of himself playing a guitar, which was gifted to him by family friend Russell Crowe.

“I’ve had a lot of fun taking up this new art,” he wrote at the time.

As it turns out, Robert has many burgeoning passions, with the teen also revealing the details about an upcoming movie project!

In June, the late Steve Irwin’s son confirmed an “exciting collaboration” with Jungle Beat: The Movie in a video post on his Instagram.

Meanwhile, with his sister Bindi expecting her first child with husband Chandler Powell, Robert will no doubt be kept busy in his personal life too as he embarks on a new journey as a doting uncle.
