Just send me a message, and I’ll explain exactly how to get there without stress. Let’s capture your story in one of Vienna’s most iconic settings—reach out to book your Vienna photo session today.

Are the Schönbrunn Gardens Free to Visit?
Yes! The gardens are completely free to enter and explore. If you’re interested in visiting the palace itself, there is an entrance fee—but for photography, the gardens alone offer more than enough breathtaking backdrops.

The Best Time for a Photoshoot at Schönbrunn Gardens
For the most peaceful experience and the most beautiful light, I recommend starting your photoshoot around 2 hours before the gardens close. This is when the golden hour begins, offering soft, flattering light—and when the crowds start to thin out. Avoid midday hours if possible, as the gardens can get very crowded with tourists. Opening hours change seasonally, so always check the official Schönbrunn website before planning your visit.
