His work on documenting the coal mines of Wales and America has been used extensively in publications. Specifically during the UK miners' strike (1984-1985).It has been claimed that Roger Tiley only took photography because he needed to take an extra A level, and his sixth form tutor was short of students for his photography class. He first worked in Photography as an industrial photographer for Lucas Industries, a large car component company. He spent four years there ad subsequently decided to specialise in the documentary photography. He studied at the School of Documentary Photography under David Hurn, who has worked for Magnum Photos.
