Agree with what Kerm said, furthermore, try not to make the image too overexposed. You could try takin a look at some of your favorite movie stills and see how they set up their lighting. People usually go with the three-point lighting system which you can read about here THREE-POINT LIGHTING Also, you should try to figure out what kind of mood you're goin for before anything, like meat said.

You can also play around with some rim lighting, type in google to see what it's all about. It's a good way to lose some of the detail, and gives the image an interesting look and makes it pop. Don't forget to flip the image a lot to get a fresh look.
