Paint them at Jemaa el-Fnaa
The square at the hour the lamps come on. Your companion sits front and centre while the whole city moves behind them.
Your companion sits still while the loudest place in Morocco moves behind them. The contrast is the portrait.

The place
Why Jemaa el-Fnaa
A thousand years a marketplace, and still the only square in the world where the crowd is the monument. UNESCO listed it not for a building but for the noise.
The scene: Dusk in the great square. Lantern smoke, orange-cart lamps, the drummers starting up behind you.
Same quarter, different light
