The TIFF is a flexible format that can represent everything from fax images to photos compressed or uncompressed as a bitmap, including additional image information like EXIF. TIFF supports up to 16bit per channel, transparency, multiple images, 2D images in multiple planes.
It is widely used by scanners and fax machines due to its support for all possible color depths and multiple images (for example the pages that are scanned/faxed). It gets also used in digital cameras as a lossless format.
TIFFs advantage is the wide support of almost any image format. It is also its weakness, due to the fact that a comprehensive software support for TIFF is hard to find.

How do you save several photos on 1 page as tiff on Photoshop?
Open them in Photoshop. Decide which on you want as the background. Take one of the others, select all, copy, then close the file. Go to the background, and paste the copied picture over it. Resize and position. Repeat with the other pictures. Eventually you will have a multilayered picture, containing all the photos. However, tiff format doesn't support layers, so you will need to go into the layers menu and flatten. Select tiff format from the 'save as' menu. (Obviously, this will be a rather crude collage - experiment with filters, layer transparency, blending modes, feathering selection edges, etc to create a more seamless blending. )
