In July 2008, he appeared in the news by publishing photos of Iraqi American soldiers on his blog. Major General John Kelly forbade him to go further with Iraqi soldiers in Iraq and take photographs. He was also asked to remove the photos. According to news organizations, the US government tried to prevent shocking photos from being published.

Miller was on June 26, 2008 on patrol with a battalion in Garma in Anbar province. He had rejected an invitation to attend a council meeting here. When someone stood up at this meeting, he was quick on the spot and made pictures. There were about twenty dead, including three marines. The photographs show gruesome images and show, according to Miller, what Iraqis and soldiers experience daily.

In 2005, two New York Times journalists were no longer involved with military personnel in Iraq after the newspaper had published a photograph of a deadly injured soldier. Chris Hondros of Getty Images also shared such a measure because he had made bloody pictures of an Iraqi girl.
