With iCloud+ family sharing, can each family member keep their photos separate?

With iCloud+ family sharing, can each family member keep their photos separate? In other words --- do the photos all get jumbled together or are they separate? THANKS

When you use Family Sharing, everything is kept separate including photos, data, reminders, contacts…everything. You have the option of setting up a Shared Photo Album if you choose to do so, but it requires user input. It is not by default.

Share an iCloud storage plan with your family.

Your entire family can share a single iCloud storage plan large enough to store everyone’s photos, videos, and files. Each person’s files and documents remain private, but it’s easy to see how much storage everyone is using. If you need more space, you can upgrade to a larger plan at any time.
