Abstract: This paper reports new photometric observations of minima of two very long-period eclipsing systems: AZ Cas (P=3402d) and EE Cep (P=2050d). In order to match the observed depth of the primary minimum of AZ Cas we had to introduce a third light component. For EE Cep, the shape of the eclipse can be explained by a model that includes a dark precessing disk in the system.
