Holiday snaps? (6)

I believe the answer is:

breaks

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'holiday snaps?' is the definition.
'breaks' can be an answer for 'snaps?' (I've seen this before). I'm not sure about the 'holiday' bit.

'holiday snaps?' is the wordplay.
'holiday' becomes 'break' (break can mean a holiday or time off).
'snaps?' becomes 's' (this might be a standard abbreviation I've not previously seen).
'break'+'s'='BREAKS'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for breaks that I've seen before include "Shatters" , "Snaps; holidays" , "Ruptures" , "Interruptions of continuity" , "Fractures or splits" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
