The new ephemeris and light curve analysis by synthesizing our mid-eclipse times and the former observations of BF Pav, that is classified as a W UMa-type eclipsing binary, are presented in this study. We also obtain this binary system’s period changes using Wilson-Devinney code after five nights of observation utilizing BVRI filters. Our results demonstrate that BF Pav is a contact binary system with a photometric mass ratio q=0.94, and a fillout factor f=13%. We also calculated the distance of BF Pav d=150+-27 pc from distance modulus formula, which is in good agreement with the distance obtained from this binary system’s parallax in Gaia DR2. From our O-C analysis, we found a continuous period increase at a rate of 0.3086634.10^-7 day/yr which corresponds to a period increase of 0.266 s century^-1. We determined the mass of each component of this binary system using two different methods and compare our results with the former study’s results.
