“The work of the eyes is done. Go now and do the heart-work on the images imprisoned within you.”
― Rainer Maria Rilke

2020 Self Portrait Video
During the height of the pandemic a project developed. This self portrait video taken while isolating became an experiment in videography and editing. This project led to making several music videos and album artwork for Austin bands.

Fabrication and Construction
In 2017 Zanah began restoring and designing a dilapidated ranch property into a bed and breakfast and event venue.
The ranch was home to portrait photoshoots, magazine and fashion shoots, weddings and events for several years.
The ranch was sold in 2020 and no longer operates.

A Short History
You may know Zanah from her project "Rhodes Ranch" in Bandera, Texas.
In 2016, branded Rhodes Ranch Bandera, Zanah reclaimed her grandparents dilapidated 1800's ranch property with intention to build an artisan ranch bed and breakfast. She began a complicated process of designing, renovating, and restoring the 1800's rock houses and ranch house. By 2019 the ranch had hosted multiple events and weddings, including photoshoots featured in two Texas bridal magazines, and two of the three buildings had been successfully redesigned and reconstructed as guest cabins. In 2020, with the world of events and travel changing drastically, the ranch was then sold within the family in order for the reconstruction to continue financially. Although RRB no longer exists, the ranch property lives on within the family, and they continue to enjoy the legacy that Zanah began when she took on the insurmountable project almost 10 years prior.
