#1 the pp seems gimmicky, just not my thing I guess. And you can tell they were all paying attention to a different photographer.
#2 I really like this one, good job

I don't have time to look through the whole gallery, but the pics inside the church are very, very yellow. Can be sorted out if you shot RAW, a little tougher if you shot JPEG. Anytime I know lighting will be challenging I'm RAW all the way, otherwise JPEG.

Regarding the yellowish pictures,

the lights in the church are yellow, the wall are yellowish... hences the pictures are yellowish. Because of these, do you reckon it is a good idea to AWB these pictures?

Regarding the white balance- personally, unless I'm dealing with trying to balance flash and ambient light when they're each of different colors, I personally just leave my camera in AWB and tweak it in RAW to taste.

If you prefer to get a better white balance out of the camera, look into getting a gray card and taking a picture of it, going into custom white balance, and using that as a reference. It would take precious moments to do that on the spot, though, and in my opinion, it's better to focus on the photos first. White balance can very easily be fixed across multiple photos instantly in post processing. Others may disagree.

On your flickr site most of all your pictures looks out of focus.

IMAGE NOT FOUND
HTTP response: NOT FOUND | MIME changed to 'image/gif' | Redirected to error image by FLICKR


Was there a reason for this ?

Some of the shots that you got were from a good angle. :)

Not sure if it's your style of pp but to me the yellow bias does not looks natural.

aside from the overly yellow skin tones, this is a very cool shot!

composition tres bon! Is that right?

Although looks as though you had 10 polo' filters screwed to your lens! :P Take the saturation down and it will help.
