Up until now, I've relied on a single flash in an umbrella or softbox, often with a reflector for fill. This lent itself well to loop/rembrandt lighting, but I didn't have a lot of control over fill, and background lighting was mostly a matter of controlling spill from the main light.
I've recently made the jump to 3 lights and have been learning how to use them, but would love some feedback and tips on how I can improve. The photo below is a self-portrait with loop lighting done with 3 lights:

- Key light = 38" octobox above and camera left
- Fill light = 31" square softbox slightly below and camera right
- Background is lit with a 16 degree gridded snoot on a bare wall
