Light's not right
Beth,
The way you have your lights set up gives you the effect of two, not one, light source. You have eliminated the shadow plane on the viewer's right side of his head. I don't like using a reflector to fill in the shadows because it creates a second light source since it's off to one side and not close enough to the camera position. A fill light should impart no evidence of its own existence. It's sole purpose is to adjust the contrast between light and shadow, plain and simple.
