This summer, Las Vegas introduces designers and photo enthusiasts alike to the new Photo 2020 Art Gallery, Inc., a high end gallery devoted to showcasing photographer and photo artist, Baroness Danuté, a creative tempest whose passion captures moments that takes her breath away.

The gallery will encompass two rooms downstairs and the entire second floor.

·         How is the work she does today differ from  when she started shooting 16 years ago?
·         What is the most surprising thing that has happened to her while photographing someone or something?
·         What inspired her to get behind the lens?
·         What are her favorite destinations to shoot?
·         Did she start photographing animals first or tribes?
·         Has she studied under a particular photographer?
·         What advice does she have for women who want to take up photography?
