Possibly something like this in your forms.py

#forms.py

class PricingForm(forms.ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = PricingModel
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super(PricingForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
self.fields['user'].choices =
((c.id,c.company) for c in UserProfile.objects.all())

or specify the choice in your model like this

user = models.ForeignKey(
User,
help_text='Select the user to apply this pricing',
choices=((c.id,c.company) for c in UserProfile.objects.all())
)
