We present detail photometric study of neglected contact and near-contact binary systems e.g. V365 Dra, V373 Dra, OQ UMa using small telescopes from several to several tens of centimeters in diameter. For studied eclipsing binaries are given improved light ephemeris determined by phenomenological modeling and physical parameters of the system and components obtained by Wilson-Devinney method.
