OPINION

EVA M. GUZMAN, Justice.

Appellant entered pleas of guilty to two counts of intoxication manslaughter and one count of intoxication assault. He was convicted and the jury assessed punishment at twelve years’ incarceration for each count of intoxication manslaughter and ten years for intoxication assault. The trial court cumulated the intoxication manslaughter sentences, ordering the sentences to run consecutively. In two issues, appellant contends the trial court erred in cumulating the sentences and in admitting autopsy photographs at the punishment phase of trial. We affirm.
