 In the days when I shot only slide film, the number of photos I shot was limited by how much film I was willing to carry and how much money I was able to spend on film and processing. Even if a client was picking up the tab, there was still the issue of how much film I felt like carrying; 10 rolls a day for a 10-day trip meant 100 rolls of film. That's a chore -- especially when you're going through airports and having to have the film inspected by hand.

I love to play basketball. Over the years, I've had the opportunity to play not only with good players, but with a few professional players as well. This experience hasn't made me a pro-caliber player; however, it has helped me to realize my potential as a player. I'm not in the physical condition of my youth, but my improved understanding of the game has made me a better player than when I could jump above the rim.

Without forming a personal connection, it's difficult to move beyond a basic understanding of the subject -- and false perceptions or cliched interpretations can result. The photojournalist falls into the potential trap of misrepresenting the subject. Here are six strategies I use to build closer relationships with my subjects.
