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())
         )
