Duplicating all data on new ID
Hi, my partner and I have been sharing an ID and now want to duplicate all photos and apps to her new Apple ID whilst retain all content on my ID.
How do I do this? Thank you.

You can use Family Sharing to share the apps you have purchased while using your same Apple ID. If you keep the old Apple ID, you must create a Family Sharing and then invite your partner with the new Apple ID. That way, your partner gets access to the same apps, so they don't have to be bought again.
As for the pictures. Then you can either choose to send all the pictures via, for example, AirDrop, or create a shared album that you share with your partner's new Apple ID. In the shared album, you then move all the pictures that your partner must have access to.
