“It brings me joy, it really brings me joy,” she said.

Shoham, who has spent time in the fashion world and in
graphic design, makes both originals and templates, wildly color-

meets contemporary,” in her words, and over the years she’s kept
her designs fresh by experimenting as much as she can.

bah, and then continued to the same for others.

Marks has made a career of making her own meaning, in a way.

Describing she and her husband as “lapsed” Conservative Jews,
she said that one of the main drivers behind her desire to make
her own ketubah was to fi nd something specifi cally meaningful to
them; now, she does the same for the couples that she works with.

Th e name of her store, Tallulah Ketubah, is a reference to both
the Irish name “Tallulah” and the Native American word pro-
nounced in the same way, meaning “leaping water.” Th e name,
Marks said, signals that her store is not just for traditionally
