Bindi Irwin's brother, Robert, wasn't just the photographer behind the 21-year-old's engagement photos. He also helped out his older sister's fiancé Chandler Powell prepare to pop the question.

"... I wanted to know exactly composition-wise where I needed to hide and how it all needed to happen because I wanted to capture the moment beautifully," Robert explained. "I wanted great photos."
