A Fresh Take on Nostalgic Sweets

A Hostess Test Shoot with OMS Photographer, Delaney McQuown.

What happens when inspiration strikes in the snack aisle? For OMS photographer Delaney McQuown, it sparked a playful, high-energy test shoot featuring some of the most iconic treats from Hostess. Think Twinkies, CupCakes, Donettes, and HoHos styled, staged, and shot with a fresh visual twist.

This project was a creative playground from start to finish. Delaney took the lead on both styling and photography, using items from the OMS prop room to bring her vision to life. From colorful trays and vintage tins to textured backdrops and quirky utensils, every element was hand-selected to elevate the whimsy and nostalgia of the classic heritage brand.
