This photo was taken using 3 lights, a key light or a main light that lights up the subject so that they look crisp and are properly exposed, the second light is the fill light, this light fills the shadows so that they aren’t as harsh, the third light is a hair light above the subject, just to add some color and light to the top of the subject to look more natural and flattering.
Here’s a quick diagram of the lighting setup, I did it in paint so don’t judge it too hard.
