I built a photography business that gave me the confidence to leave my 9–5, create a six-figure income, work school hours and spend every school holiday with my boys.
Now I help photographers and small business owners do the same through The Growth Accelerator — my signature coaching program built around your skill, pricing, content, marketing, sales campaigns and confidence.
"Quitting my 9–5 was the best thing I ever did. Now I help photographers build the business to do the same."
— Codie MurrayIt happens when you build the right foundations — your pricing, your client experience, your marketing, your offers and your belief.
Because the fear is real. What if you leave too early? What if bookings slow down? What if your business can’t replace your income? That is exactly why I coach photographers through a clear growth plan instead of leaving them to figure it out alone.
One where I could choose my own hours, spend school holidays with my boys and stop asking someone else for annual leave.
Over the last 13 years I’ve built a photography business that has photographed more than 1,000 families, sold 300 Christmas mini sessions in 24 hours and created multiple six-figure years.
But the thing I’m most proud of isn’t the numbers. It’s the freedom.
Now The Growth Accelerator is the way I help photographers build businesses that create that same freedom.
Every strategy I teach comes from the photography business I still run — newborns, families, Christmas minis, studio systems, client experience, marketing and the kind of workflow that makes this sustainable.
That is why my education is different. You are learning from someone still doing the work every week.
If you want to see the client work, behind the scenes, sessions, studio life and the photography business behind everything I teach, come follow my photography page.
The holidays. The school pick-ups. The ability to be there without asking anyone for leave. The freedom to build our dream farm, create studios and design life around our family — not around someone else’s roster.
That’s the version of success I want more photographers to experience.
If you want to quit your day job, go full time, or simply build a business that finally feels profitable and sustainable, this is where we work together properly.
We look at your actual business — your skill, your pricing, your content, your offers, your Meta Ads, your sales campaigns, your website and the mindset blocks that keep making you second-guess yourself.
This is not just coaching. It is your roadmap to a photography business that can support the life you actually want.
The exact system behind 300 Christmas minis sold in 24 hours. Plan, price, sell and deliver profitable mini sessions without chaos.
A calm, repeatable workflow from 13+ years of newborn sessions so you can shoot with more confidence and less stress.
Client guides, captions and Canva templates to make your photography business look more polished instantly.
Use short-form content to test hooks, grow reach and find what your photography audience actually responds to.
Build simple Meta Ads campaigns for your photography offers without guessing what buttons to press.
The organic + paid growth system for photographers who want more visibility and more enquiries.
This is the container where I help photographers and small business owners build the skill, pricing, content, marketing, offers and confidence to grow. If your dream is to quit your day job and go full time, this is the program I want you looking at.
You’re learning from someone still running a real photography business, still photographing clients, still marketing offers, still refining workflows and still using the same strategies I teach.
Belleview Studio is another part of the business ecosystem I’ve created — a space for branding, content, workshops and creative women to build their own businesses with more confidence.
This is why my education is different.
I don’t just teach theory. I build businesses, launch offers, run studios, sell digital products, mentor photographers and test marketing strategies in real life.
But you need more than hope. You need a clear plan, pricing that supports your goals, marketing that brings in enquiries and someone in your corner helping you believe this is possible.
