You're right. The flash shots are all trash. The below linked ones, 
outside, are without. I used flash in the church only, it was too dark 
there even with 1.4, as I had the wrong film loaded (100 insted of 400-800 
ASA). When I was outside, the couple was arriving very suddenly and so I 
finished the 100 ASA film inside the church. A beginner's mistake. Shit 
happens. But you should have seen the official photgs flash-pix. Even worse.
