How will I be able to take a picture that looks like this?

I started getting into portrait photography, and I found a picture of me attention. Http: / / c2.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images02/70/l_4bb81b6bd9d346cb90a3090595f76441.jpg me to achieve something close to it. Any advice? Should I use a diffuser? Here's the team I have so far; Nikon D40 18-55mm AF-S 55-200mm AF-S 55mm f/3.5 Micro (MF) of 50 mm f / 1,8 of Series E (manual focus) SB-400 Flash Thanks in advance!

No diffuser (unless you use a beauty dish with a sock) hard light directly Slightly above the left. The size of the light source is important in the size of the individual. (I use a beauty dish) + snoot light just behind framing it in the background. wide-angle lens, and uses a full frame camera which is what was used in the shooting is referenced. Not required but I'm just being specific. Colors can be adjusted in photoshop with hardlight desaturated layer above the original and / or tungsten whitebalance in the chamber while using daylight balanced strobes to create that style of color. This can help you get started.
