Uploading image files

Question

Could you please help me to get image upload working on a view with django forms?

Models.py

class User_Profile(models.Model):
    user = models.OneToOneField(User, unique=True, related_name='profile')
    photo  = models.ImageField(upload_to = 'profiles/', null=True, blank=True)

Forms.py

class ProfileForm(forms.ModelForm):
        class Meta:
            model = User_Profile
            exclude = ('user')

Views.py

    if request.method == 'POST':
        profile_form = ProfileForm(request.POST, instance=request.user.profile)

        if profile_form.is_valid():
            profile_form.save()
            return HttpResponseRedirect('/panel/correct/')

    else:
        profile_form = ProfileForm(instance=request.user.profile)

My html form already contains enctype="multipart/form-data"

You don't seem to be binding the file data to the form.

profile_form = ProfileForm(request.POST, request.FILES, instance=request.user.profile)
