My mission is to help educate and empower you to take charge of your family’s story and personal heritage by ensuring your photographs and sentimental items are organised, maintained, and protected over time.
ABOUT/MELANIE JAYNE SANCHO TAYLORPhotographic archive expertise, brought into your home.
Meet Melanie
I founded Your Photo Legacy to help families make sense of a lifetime of photographs and family materials - often spread across albums, boxes, phones, computers and hard drives - and to create a clear, considered way to care for them.
“My mission is to help you take charge of your family’s story and personal heritage, with the expertise to ensure your photographs and family materials are organised, understood, maintained and protected over time.”
With more than a decade of experience organising, digitising and preserving photographic collections at the British Library in London and the State Library of Victoria in Melbourne, I bring professional archival expertise into the homes of families who want their collections cared for with thought and intention.
I’m a Certified Photo Manager, trained in Information Management, and a contemporary photographic artist whose work explores personal archives and memory. I combine this unique background with a deep passion for helping families create beautifully organised, meaningful family archives that can be enjoyed now - and understood by generations to come.

Meet Melanie Jayne
I founded Your Photo Legacy to offer thoughtful and professional solutions to one of the most common and overlooked problems of the 21st century: the vast and ever-increasing quantity of our own collections of personal photos and memories that are unmanaged, dispersed across multiple locations, and are at great threat of becoming permanently lost.
With over a decade of experience of organising, digitising and preserving collections at the British Library in London and State Library of Victoria in Melbourne, I bring museum-level expertise into the homes of families who want to preserve their stores with care and intention.
I’m a Certified Photo Manager and trained information management professional, as well as a contemporary photographic artist whose work explores personal archives and memory. I combine this unique background with a deep passion for helping families create beautifully, organised, living archives that can be enjoyed now - and for generations to come.
