"I wanted to capture the moment beautifully. I wanted great photos. To do that, we sought a plan where Chandler would be kneeling and where Bindi, who I sort of filled those shoes for the testing. I had the camera on a timer and got some pretty awesome shots of Chandler on one knee proposing to me."

"The most beautiful surprise. Chandler and Robert worked together to capture the moment I said 'YES.' We were in the gardens of Australia Zoo and it was beyond perfect. I never even knew Robert was there photographing and I'll always be grateful to have these special memories of the most amazing day of my life," reveals about her engagement.
