Philip T. Timms (September 16, 1874 – August 8, 1973) was a Canadian photographer and printer.

He was a member of the Royal Photographic Society and the official photographer of the Vancouver Museum. As an amateur he was involved in archaeology, history, music, and film. 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".
