It was Amy’s intriguing and beautiful face that first caught my attention.

I started following her work, and at first it seemed like she mostly do hair modelling, clothes, wedding, and fashion in general. However the more I saw, the more I was convinced she would be gorgeous for my style of work.

After following each other’s work for a while and some mutual commenting on each other images, I finally contacted her for a possible collaboration. She immediately answered yes! Exactly on the date four months later, she stood in front of me in Norway!

I am very impressed by both her skills as a model as well as by her personality. She showed both passion and went that extra mile to create beautiful images in the rather cold April temperatures of Norway, around five degrees. She posed at beaches, in forests and we even shot at a proper waterfall that sprayed utterly cold (!) moistured winds around her!

In addition, we spent half of the shooting time indoor where I got the most beautiful and emotional images from portraits and figure work. She can convey a multitude of expressions; fragile, strong, longing, dreamy, mysterious and more which is more than I could hope for.

The images from the shoots are very good and I am soooo very pleased with what we created!

She stayed for multiple days and I must say she is easy going, friendly, chatty and she had an eye for helping in the house as well. We both shared efforts to both cook meals and do the dishes and cleaning after. In general a very nice person to be around.

If you did not notice Amy before, you should definitely start thinking of booking her, especially if my experience resonates with your style.

Thank you so much to Amy for some lovely days of great collaboration. I would be pleased to work together again!

I give her my highest recommendations!!!

To describe Amy I can only use one single word "incredible."

Pre communication was undeniably outstanding before the shoot. She was punctual and on time.

There was a miscommunication regarding the makeup and this mix up made me feel a little worried and embarrassed but Amy took it all in her stride and helped me to feel relaxed and at ease.

However, it was solved fast and we made it all work in the end regardless. After some back and forth we got round to shooting at the location which by this point was closed (although we had prior permission to work in the location) once again Amy was so genuine and so kind towards me as inside I was panicking.

We ended up working around the grounds and in such a short period of time we had managed to create the most gorgeous cinematic style images of my entire portfolio to date. I love cinematic editing and photography, so her coming up with the idea of a modern runaway bride on the spot as our theme was perfect for my style.

Her creative input was really welcomed as it showed how much passion she had for what she does. Somehow we came away with over 100 images from a three hour shoot together to which thankfully we both loved the look of.

By far one of the more talented models I have had the pleasure to work with.

She comes highly recommended from me.

Amy came to Studio 91 Cannock last Saturday and was amazing! She had good pre-comms and was punctual giving updates on her arrival times. She shot with four photographers (separately) throughout the day, with fashion and Hollywood themes. She was very pleasant to be around and had some awesome posing, working to get the results that each photographer was after. I know that everyone was excited to work with her and they have had some very pleasing images to share from the day. Thank you Amy, best wishes Jann

Amy recently modelled for my Portrait Lighting Workshop in the South of France. She was a delight to work with.

Amy is an extremely intelligent young lady, with great ideas, fantastic communication and not to mention an extremely diverse model.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Amy and very much look forward to working with her again

I had the pleasure of my first shoot with Amy on a group shoot organised by Tabitha Boydell at Patshull Hall.

Amy was a pleasure to work with and easy to get along with. She can pose effortlessly with and without instruction.

I can highly recommend Amy to any photographer.

Thank you for your time and hard work on the day.

Amy is a fab model - doesn't get the recognition she deserves. I've wanted to work with her for SO LONG and finally booked her in a local location. Had so much good feedback from attendees. Really pleased and have already booked her again.

Amy was one of the models on a Tabitha Boydell organised shoot and was an excellent choice. Amy poses effortlessly and also takes on board ideas. A pleasure to work with.

Highly recommended.

There is something special about Amy. She walked into our place demure, confident but extremely friendly and funny. We chatted while she had her make up and hair done and then boom! Amy the model entered the building. I shoot lots and lots of top professional models and i rate her highly. Great skin and hair fantastic body with perfect skin. She is a special find and we hope to use her regularly.

Lewis Membery

Without a shadow of a doubt I would recommend Amy.

We've worked together multiple times now and she is by far the most professional model I have had the pleasure of working with. She is incredibly in front of the camera and needs next to no direction. You can turn up, shoot and know 100% that you have got more than a few handfuls of brilliant shots.

Hire her now!

Worked with Amy last week on a photoshoot. She is an absolutely gorgeous model, throwing out pose after pose. I love that she liked to talk through the creative direction for the shoot. Amy really made my designs come alive, thoroughly recommend. Hope to work with her again.

OutThereFX

Saturday 14th April saw me working with AmyMcCranor at the Telsen building, Birmingham for a photoshoot theme inspired by the Haute Couture look John Galliano created for his 2009-2011 Collection.

This was the 1st time that I worked with this Amy, and all I can say is Wow!

It was great working with Amy. Although only able to join us halfway through the shoot, she was revved-up and motivated to get in front of the camera. And when she did what happened was incredible and needing next to no direction.

I love that Amy talked through the creative ideas we had already shot and her look too. She was an angel in everyway, showing me and the group of OutThereFX how professional she is.

Would love to work with AmyMcCranor again in the future and I look forward to it! :)

Paige Feline

Worked with Amy today and despite the tight time frame she was able to change quickly and throw out pose after pose!

Had a Fantastic first shoot with Amy. After a couple of postponements due to the snow, we finally got to shoot.

Pre Comms were excellent and Amy had a clear idea of the type of images we wanted to achieve. Amy arrive on time and had a great selection of outfits ready for the shoot.

We shot in a woodland location to go with our ethereal theme.

Amy takes direction really well where needed, but to be honest just flowed so well from one position to the other :). Amy is great to get on with and is really fun, friendly and up for a challenge.

We got some great images together and shot for hours, but felt like minutes.

Would thoroughly recommend, 5 stars :)

Thanks Amy, look forward to working with you again...

Adam Richards

Had an excellent shoot with Amy, she arrived all ready to shoot, with some great ideas and location ideas to boot!

She posed well and was perfectly patient with me fiddling with settings in the camera. All the while braving the cold of an outdoor night shoot! We got some great images and I would heartily recommend her to any one!

Mike Ferto

I worked with Amy on my latest editorial, and look forward to doing another shoot with her soon. She was great with communication right from the start and in the lead up to the shoot, she was there on time and she brought an amazing energy with her. Would definitely recommend working with her.

I spoke to Amy briefly regarding something else that she was interested in being a stylist for, and for whatever reason we didn't shoot on that occasion. She's since got in to modelling to compliment her other creative talent and dropped me a line about modelling for me instead before I moved away to Wales. She had a brief brief in mind in terms of vibe and outfit, and given her stylist background, I was more than happy to trust her creative vision while seeing what we could come up with on the day. In fairness, while new to modelling, i think Amy having been around the industry and knowing what she'd looks for in a model on the other side of the camera means she has a massive head start on her new venture. Maybe it was the soft indie look or our previous comms, but i wrongly figured she may be a little quiet and introverted as many creatives can be (me included), but she was surprisingly a talkative ball of energy in a positive way, easy to chat too thru out, and with no arrogance yet nor a lack of confidence.

I had put up a casting back in March when the snow hit Birmingham and thankfully Amy answered it and braved the ice to shoot, It was an absolute pleasure to work with her and would definitely work with her again, she needed no direction and had some good ideas.

I am glad i got to work with her and would of course definitely recommend her!

Amy stood in at late notice for me in a big group shoot in Birmingham when we had another model cancel.

And what a great surprise she was!!

Amy had been given little information and notice about the shoot but bought with her appropriate wardrobe and was full of lovely friendly chatter.

Amy is a dream to work with - she can adopt a vast range of makeup and hair styles and nail every one of them.

Amy has beautiful clear skin that is every MUA’s dream and the most glorious hair.

Amy was incredibly intuitive with her posing. She had a great understanding of the art and styling we were hoping to achieve.

I’d be thrilled to work with her again and would highly recommend her to everyone

Amy stepped in last minute for an urban themed shoot and was simply superb. very easy going, worked great with other models and MUA. She took to posing and the theme and style with ease. She has a great look and would be perfect for certain projects and shoots. She is highly recommended.
