I have the following code in my WPF project:
Dim ce As Windows.UI.Xaml.Controls.CaptureElement = New Windows.UI.Xaml.Controls.CaptureElement
ce.Width = 300
ce.Height = 200
Dim elementHostPartial = New ElementHost
elementHostPartial.Child = ce 'error here - cannot be converted to UIElement
myWindowsFormsHost.Child = ce 'error here - cannot be converted to UIElement
Dim captureManager = New MediaCapture
Await captureManager.InitializeAsync
ce.Source = captureManager
Await captureManager.StartPreviewAsync

(although I'm open to switching to using a MediaElement or MediaPlayerElement) The framework is:
You could use the

is used to host WinForms controls.Please refer to the docs for details.
