Right ... but according to some definitions posted here, and JCO's last comment, it's not a snap because it was not spontaneous, was planned ahead of time, the people involved gathered with the intent of making this and other photographs, they waited for or moved to the right light, and so on.
The point I'm trying to make is that a snapshot is more about what it is than the methodology of making the photo.
