In the sentence, "It's me." the word "it" and the word "me" are pronouns.

The sentence is incorrect. The sentence should read, "It's I."

The pronouns "it", "me", and "I" are personal pronouns. A personal pronoun takes the place of a noun (or another pronoun) for a specific person or thing.

  • The personal pronoun "it" is taking the place of 'what is unknown'.
  • The form "it's" is a contraction for "it is", the subject of of the sentence and the verb combined.
  • The personal pronoun "I" takes the place of the noun (or name) for the person speaking.
  • The pronoun "I" is the subjective, singular form. The subject pronoun "I" is functioning as the subject complement, a word following a linking verb ("is") that restates the subject ("it"). A subject complement is always a subjective form.
  • The first person, singular, personal pronoun "me" is the objective form. An objective form does not function as a subject complement.

This is a great picture of her and you. If you're not sure which pronoun to use, remove one pronoun and use the one that makes sense. Then replace the other one. Use this method with both pronouns if necessary. The same hold true when determining I and me usage. Frankly, the above sentence is awkward and should be rewritten.
