Description

Your ketubah is more than a marriage contract—it is the visual story of your relationship and the life you are building together.

This custom papercut ketubah was created for a couple who wanted to honor a landscape deeply meaningful to them. Mountains rise around a waterfall and winding river, down to their beloved dog, and framed by trees illuminated by the first light of sunrise. A pair of hiking boots symbolizes the journey they have chosen to walk together.

At the center of the artwork, the handwritten marriage contract is surrounded by layers of intricate papercutting and original watercolor painting, transforming a traditional ketubah into a deeply personal work of art.

Every custom ketubah I create begins with your story. Whether your connection is rooted in favorite places, family traditions, meaningful symbols, shared adventures, or beloved pets, I work closely with each couple to design a one-of-a-kind ketubah that reflects who you are and what matters most to you.
