Philip T. Timms (September 16, 1874 – August 8, 1973)[1] was a Canadian photographer and printer.
As an amateur he was involved in archaeology, history, music, and film. He was a member of the Royal Photographic Society and the official photographer of the Vancouver Museum. Major J.S. Matthews stated he "is a real Vancouver pioneer; handpicked, extra special, double refined and forty over proof" and Maclean's Guide to Vancouver described his works as an "invaluable contribution to our cultural heritage".[2]
