You should punctually recite this dua:
اللهم اصلح لنا شاننا كلہ، اللهم اصلح لى في ذريتي، اللهم انى اسألك الهدى والتقی والعفاف والغنى
And you must strictly stop photographing. Also, it is not allowed to share a stage before nikah. It is also not Islamically lawful if non-Mahram women or men have a reach there. Therefore, there should be a place for sitting where only women can come to the girl and no non-Mahram men should approach there. Likewise, only men should go to the boy, no non-Mahram women should be there. If it is possible for you to persuade your brother, you should tell him something about status and respect of father so that he must respect the father in dealing the matter.
