We report extensive photometry of the dwarf nova QW Ser throughout its 2003 February superoutburst till quiescence. During the superoutburst the star displayed clear superhumps with a mean period of Psh = 0.07703(4) days. In the quiescence we observed a double humped wave characterized by a period of P=0.07457(2) days. As both periods obey the Stolz-Schoembs relation with a period excess equal to 3.30+/-0.06% the latter period is interpreted as the orbital period of the binary system.
