Frank Henry Gowen (1878–1946) was a Canadian photographer. He grew up in Wiltshire, England, and served an apprenticeship with a London photographer. Gowen emigrated to Canada and in 1905 he opened a studio in Brandon, Manitoba. He moved to Vancouver in 1913, and starting three years later, he acquired the position of official photographer to Stanley Park. In 1920, he formed a partnership with Alfred Sutton to form the Gowen Sutton Company. It became one of the largest Canadian publishers of real photo postcards. Gowen ended his partnership with Sutton in 1930. He then opened a souvenir kiosk at Prospect Point in Stanley Park which he operated until two years before his death in 1946.
