Shani...there is a fee required to get a state photo ID in most states and a limited number of places to get such an ID, often nowhere near minority communities.

If one must pay a small fee to get a photo ID in order to vote, how is that not similar in some respect to a small poll tax?

Why does it have to be a photo ID? There should absolutely be an ID requirement to vote, but there is no evidence that current requirements in nearly every other state (social security card along with such documents as a bank statement, utility bill, Social Security paystub or other forms of ids that contain an address) have resulted in voter fraud or voting by dead people.
