Nestled in the heart of Lowell, Massachusetts, City Hall stood as the perfect backdrop to a day full of magical moments. The historic and vibrant atmosphere echoed with joy and new beginnings as Vanessa and Meytal tied the knot. Featured in The Boston Globe, their beautiful story of modern romance stands as evidence to a digital age of connection.
Swiping Right to Forever
Shortly after matching on Tinder, Vanessa and Meytal knew they wanted to share their lives together. In six short months, their relationship blossomed into an exceptional foundation for marriage. Vanessa, who planned on proposing, was pleasantly surprised when Meytal popped the question. Naturally, the answer was YES!

A Perfect Day
To begin their wedding day, Meytal and Vanessa had planned a special ritual they would perform together in front of City Hall. The beauty of witnessing and photographing this ritual was something I will remember forever. It was an honor to capture these memories.
Continuing with tradition, Rabbi Sarah Noyovitz welcomed the couple inside to lead their magical ceremony, themed of promise. Photographing the process of them signing their Ketubah was an experience I found exciting to be a part of. It was so gorgeously designed by both Meytal and Vanessa, capturing the seamlessness of their unity. In the Jewish tradition, a Ketubah is a binding contract that serves as a symbol of commitment. Rabbi Noyovitz then added her signature, officially making the Ketubah a legal document. From my perspective, their commitment toward each other was so strong, it was almost tangible.
Once signed, Meytal and Vanessa were eager to complete their vows and say “I do.” They both look forward to having a larger casual celebration with their friends and families during the upcoming summer season. Watching these two best friends unite as one was such a pleasure and truly beautiful experience as their photographer.
Arlinda is a wonderful photographer. She was flexible with our ideas and had really great ideas of her own. The pictures from the sneak peek are incredible! We needed a videographer and she put together a last minute contact, which also carried the same professionalism. Kind and generous!! We will hire again!
