John Edward Saché was a commercial photographer who operated from Rampart Row, Bombay c. 1869. Several members of the Saché family were working as photographers in India from the 1860s onwards. It is not known when Saché & Murray worked together however it is likely that this refers to the same Colin Murray who joined Bourne & Shepherd in 1870 and became chief photographer after Bourne returned to England.
