The Banks Dory was first built by Simeon Lowell at Lowell’s Boat Shop in Amesbury, Massachusetts. Simeon Lowell founded Lowell’s Boat Shop on the banks of the Merrimack River in Amesbury, Massachusetts in 1793. Lowell’s Boat Shop is now a working museum and on the National Register of Historic Places.
My fascination with photographing the Banks Dories and other Wooden Boats at Lowell’s Boat Shop started about a decade ago when I lived down the street from the boat shop. In the afternoon, sitting at my desk, I could see the sun reflecting off the west side of the building. One day I was moved to grab my camera and go across the street to take photos of the boat’s reflections on the river. I’ve spent hours on the banks of the river at Lowell’s Boat Shop over the years immersing myself in the imagery, the colors and movement.
The fine art photos available below are some of my favorites, I hope they will be your favorites too.

Artist Statement: As a photographer I am drawn to color, light, movement, patterns and reflections that occur in nature. I am a visual spatial person who naturally sees what is before my eyes within a frame. Throughout my life I have been inspired by art and nature, each in their many forms. Photography a marvelous medium for me as multimedia artist, writer and photographer, as it provides an instant gratification of creating something tangible that I can share with others. I hope you find inspiration in my work, and invest in my artistic vision. With gratitude… Pamela Leavey
