Lighting diagram for the chaise shot. We actually did this shoot in my den at home since the studio was too hot to work in. I only brought 4 strobes so when I needed a little extra fill, I just set my Nikon SB-800 to remote optical trigger mode and shot it into my 5' octobox which wasn't being used otherwise. Normally I might have just bounced it off my panel reflector, but since that wasn't available, I just used the octo. I think it worked out pretty nice.

Key light was a 12" cone reflector with a 30 degree grid. Hair light was a 7" cone with a 20 degree grid. Background lights were 36x12" strip boxes. And as mentioned above, fill provided by a speed light shot into a 5' octo.

They need a 3D version so you can see the heights and angles of the lights too.

Thanks for sharing the diagram. I need to work on my hair/accent light to get better separation, but my aim usually seems off.
