Try

Send only 1 pic at a time for users who are not using iMessage, as multiple pics' size may be above a carrier limit.
Ensure the 'Send as SMS' option is turned on inMessage settings.

TThank you for the reply. All three switches are already on in settings. A friend just showed me how to reboot by holding down the two buttons, that fixed it!
