To offer a counter view, for me, I might enjoy having the photos rendered in the Ghibli style for a short period of time, but they will never be either timeless moments of my kids, or stills from a timeless animated film. I'm always going to find myself associating the images with a fairly low-effort attempt to do something 'cute' because I am hard pressed to feel that prompting an AI and feeding it an existing image is the appropriate effort on my part to create something memorable.

This is highly personal though, and if it works for you, then you have one of the best reasons for using this sort of image generation -- to create memories and experiences with your family.
