Same Apple ID on two phones, want to split, but keep existing apps and pictures

My husband lost his apple ID years ago, and jumped on my ID. We share pictures and apps. I just had to reset the password and now he is getting my texts.

I want this to end. If I create a new ID for myself, will pictures and apps transfer from my old ID onto the new ID?

iPhone 13 Pro Max, iOS 17

Apps are owned by one Apple ID. You may set up Family Purchase Sharing if you wish.

Photos also are owned by one person but may be shared.

Before “moving in” using a new Apple ID, be certain you thoroughly cleanse your Apple devices.
