This tutorial is a quick guide to creating and setting up your TPE Web account, so you can begin planning your next photo trip on The Photographer’s Ephemeris Web.
You’ll find the web app at app.photoephemeris.com. Click the link to get started – just make sure you’re browsing happy with an up-to-date browser.
Note: TPE Web is designed for desktop and laptop computers, but is also accessible on tablets. On mobile devices, you can sign up for an account and complete a password reset, but you cannot access the web app.

Create a free TPE Web account
An account isn’t required to use TPE Web, but if you don’t already have an account, we recommend creating one so that you can access more tools and save your locations. Simply complete the short form to create one – it’s free:
We recommend signing up for the mailing list to receive updates, tutorials, product news, and more.
After you create your account, you will receive an email asking you to confirm your email address by clicking a link. Please do this upon receipt – you will need to verify your email address to continue using the site.
Note: Please avoid using spam-protection services that require senders to click a link before their message is delivered to your email address. Our sign-up system is automated, and we are unable to process such messages.
Sign in to your TPE Web account
Sign in to your new account to get started, using the email address and password you chose when creating the account:
If you’ve forgotten your password, click the Forgot password? link and enter your email address to receive a reset link:
See Completing your password reset for instructions on the entire password reset process.
Start planning in TPE Web
Congratulations – you’re up and running! You can start planning your outdoor photography. If you’re ready to jump in, you can skip forward to TPE Web Orientation and Basics.
Manage your account
There are a few controls at the bottom left of the screen to help you manage your account and other features:
- Change language
- Signed-in user – click to edit account
- Sign out
- Upgrade your account
You can manage your account details by clicking on your email address or name, which is displayed when you’re signed in:
On the Manage account page, you can change your first and last name, change your password, change your registered email address, or delete your account.
When managing your account, note the following:
- You will need to re-verify the new email address – we’ll send you a new verification link by email.
- You won’t be able to delete your account if you have an active, paid subscription – you’ll need to cancel the subscription first.
- Changing your registered email address here does not change the email address on file for your mailing list subscription, or with our online merchant of record (reseller), Paddle.com.
Sign out
You can optionally sign out of your account using the Sign out link at the bottom left (3). It’s generally more convenient to stay signed in, however – you’ll save on loading time, bandwidth, and mouse clicks.
Change language
You can change the displayed language using the country code links at the bottom left (1). At the time of writing, we support English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Korean, and Polish.
Please be sure to check out the remainder of the tutorials, continuing with TPE Web Orientation and Basics.
