We caught up with LA based fashion photographer Danielle Defoe after a sexy shoot in Venice Beach, and talked about how she got her start in photography and her fav spots in the city of angels as she unwinds with an Absolut Tune cocktail.
How do you Flaunt Your Sparkle and Unleash Your Spirit
I would describe myself as being very charismatic and social, I love to dress up and look good but most importantly I like to feel good. I try to exercise everyday, when you feel healthy and positive everything else about you shines. If I’m out for the night I always wear red lipstick, I love a fire engine pout.
Favorite spots for dinner would be Pace in Laurel Canyon for yummy Italian and amazing ambiance, Dan Tana’s and Jones Hollywood are also great. Casalinda in Venice has great fish tacos, as well as Esquela in Weho. Robata Jinya is great for Japanese, or Katasuya on 3rd. LA loves reinvention, there’s a lot of “hot” clubs that used to be another club but they just changed the name and gave it a face lift. That gets old real quick. I love the classics like Chateau Marmont or The Roosevelt Hotel. Lil Death at The One Eyed Gypsy is a really cool party. Favorite dives are the Burgundy Room and The Kibitz Room, and there’s a lot of cool new bars downtown.
