For Marzipan's photo booth that is the subject of the toon Haunted Photo Booth, see Photo Boooth.

Snap Shak is the name of a photo booth in Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People, located in The Field, featuring pictures of Pom Pom, Homestar Runner, Marzipan and Bubs on the exterior. It is much bigger on the inside than it appears to be from the outside, extending into a large area and then dropping off into Outer Space. Entering it allows Strong Bad to change costume items and pose for photos. If the episode has been completed, Strong Bad is allowed to wear the costume pieces outside of the Shak, but otherwise re-appears in his normal clothes before leaving.

Each episode contains five backdrops for photos, as well as hidden costume pieces for Strong Bad to find. Costume pieces found in previous episodes carry forward to the next, but those found in future episodes do not carry back to the previous ones. Strong Bad can wear one item each on his head, body, legs, and feet, plus up to three additional accessory items (facial hair, eyewear, and a belt). If Strong Bad walks off the edge inside the Snap Shak and falls into Outer Space three times, as long as he is not wearing any special costume items he will flip and walk on the other side of the floor. He can then go over to the area above the door to find a secret cross-promotional shirt, which differs by episode.

The Cheat is always present in the Snap Shak as an attendant and (possibly) cameraman, regardless of his current whereabouts in the story. The Paper translates his instructions, presumably for the player's benefit, as Strong Bad has no difficulty understanding him elsewhere in the game.

Another photo booth is later seen in the toon Haunted Photo Booth.
