Canon Styled Shoot Vienna
Canon Styled Shoot Experience: Welcome to the Palace
You asked for venues with history, elegance, and soul. Canon answered. For the first Way Up North event of 2026, Canon has booked a palace.
Palais Liechtenstein, one of Vienna’s most sought-after wedding venues and an icon of Austrian grandeur, will host a programme of styled shoots and workshops during WUN Vienna 2026. Each session is led by a Canon Ambassador or Canon product expert.
Opportunities Await
Canon’s styled shoots are intimate by design. A maximum of 7 photographers per group (5 for the video workshops), giving every attendee the time and space to create portfolio work without feeling rushed. Bring your own camera, or take the chance to test Canon’s latest cameras and lenses.
Don’t forget: pack your SD or CFexpress Type B memory cards.
A note on timing: sessions are time-limited so every guest gets equal access. Please arrive promptly.

Before You Sign Up
By signing up, you accept that behind-the-scenes photos and video will be taken during the session, and that Canon may use this footage in marketing communications and on social media. Sessions are first come, first served.
The shoots are free, and they’re open only to photographers holding a Way Up North Vienna 2026 ticket.
You can sign up for one session across the entire day. One. Anyone who signs up for more than one will be removed from all of them without notice.
No spots are reserved. Everyone has the same chance to get in. We can’t take responsibility for slow connections, device issues, or anything else that keeps someone from submitting on the morning of the 22nd. The forms go live at the same moment for the whole community.
A bit of context worth stating. The Palais Liechtenstein programme wasn’t part of your WUN ticket. Canon put it together after Vienna was already planned. A free addition from a sponsor wanting to do something extra for this community. Spots are limited. Not everyone who wants in will get in. That’s the trade-off of something that came together after the fact. For those who do, we’ll see you at the palace.
