Hello
Welcome! My name is Kimberly Melton and I am passionate about preserving memories and handling my client's precious photos and media with the utmost care and respect.
​
My Story
I was born and raised in Charlotte, NC. My Daddy’s family hails from the beautiful mountains of North Carolina, while my mom’s roots trace back to Chicago. My husband and I are proud parents to an incredible daughter who has already traveled to 30 different countries (yes, I am a bit jealous!).
My Journey in Photo Management: Since 2020, I have been a proud member of an international organization called The Photo Managers. I have achieved both the Pro Organizer assessment and the Privacy Advocate classification, demonstrating my commitment to maintaining high standards in our industry. I am also the chair of the Board of Advisors.
In 2024, I was deeply honored to receive the Rising Tide Award, a recognition given by my peers to a photo manager who has shared their expertise, innovated, taken risks, and moved the needle for our community. This award left me speechless, which doesn’t happen often!
In 2023 and 2024, the NAWBO (National Association of Women Business Owners), Charlotte Chapter, nominated me for the Rising Star Award. This award celebrates entrepreneurial creativity and determination in successfully managing a business that is less than five years old.
Professional Affiliations: Since 2022, I have had the privilege of teaching photo organizing classes at Duke University's OLLI program. I have also conducted classes for the YMCA, a Family Law organization, an estate planning firm, and our senior community. I am an active member of NAWBO and Carolina Organizers, both of which have provided me with invaluable opportunities to grow, learn, and share my business.
My Commitment to You: I consider it an honor to work with your cherished photos and media. I understand how daunting it can be to entrust someone with your family's treasured history. That’s why I treat each project with the same care and attention that I give to my own family photos. Here’s how I ensure your trust and safety:
• Individual Attention: Each project is stored and labeled in individually designated containers.
• Privacy: I never share data or disclose a client's name in any way.
• Confidentiality: I am happy to sign a non-disclosure agreement when working with clients.
• Security: Your trust is extremely important to me, and I take every measure to ensure that you feel comfortable and safe working with me.
Thank you for considering me to help preserve your memories. I look forward to working with you!
