On the left I put down a studio lamp with an octabox, instead of turning the lamp on, I turned off the studio lamp of the subject and softened the light on the model by the translucent part of the reflector between the model and to turn on the lamp.
Right back I have a studio lamp, this lamp I pointed to the right wall which is equipped with white wallpaper, which creates diffuse light.

I myself am always a big fan if you can significantly reduce the distance to the model, so you can enhance the impact of the photo.
That his full head is not completely visible on the photo, I find less important than having contact with the model and the message in the photo even more powerful.
