How to take a certain shot I want


Hi, I want to take a shot like the picture I have posted but I am not sure how to go about it. What kind of lighting do you suggest? One source would be light from the window but what angle do you suggest it hit? Thanks

  I do this shot in my studio and we just use the main and fill, but no back light (or else the black won't look black). Actually the little yawning baby was on the wall of the studio I used to work in... Target (LifeTouch photo). It was extremely popular. I imagine just one light would probably work as well. Put it up high and aim down. Not on top of him but maybe a 45 degree angle?? Though this isn't really my strong point.
