A TILEINDEX layer in mapserver a simple shapefile showing the outlines of
your images, that has a field containing a path to each image on your disk.

can you confirm that the paths in your TILEINDEX lead to the correct place?
You might want to use the

-write_absolute_path

option in gdaltindex to make sure that the photos are able to be found by
mapserver. Also make sure you are specifying the correct name in your LAYER
definition for the shapefile field that contains the path to the images
