If I change my Apple ID, will the iCloud photos be kept? Will they still take up storage? And if I then make changes to the photos, will they affect other devices? Thank You

If you change the email address of your existing Apple ID, the iCloud photos will be kept. The photos will still take up storage. If you make changes to the photos, they will affect other devices using the same Apple ID.
