    """
    Format a datetime object in a timezone.

    Args:
        datetime_object (datetime.datetime): Datetime object to format.
        datetime_format (str): A Django datetime formatting string name, such as ``"DATETIME_FORMAT"``,
            ``"SHORT_DATETIME_FORMAT``", ``"DATE_FORMAT"``, ...
        timezone (str): Defaults to ``settings.TIME_ZONE``. The datetime is converted to
            this timezone. So if you use UTC in the database, and want to present another
            timezone, this will convert it correctly.

    Returns:
        str: The formatted datetime.
