Since this is an important commission, if I were you I would, do it at a size you are the most comfortable with. Don't go changing your batting stance when you go to the world series. The time for experimentation is NOT when you take center stage.
Also if you have to blow up a small photo too much you'll find a lack of clarity to work from. In any case I would suggest you photograph someone with similar looks to get better quality details. Take closeups.
Also, do a small study to work out color, composition, edges and values. This is the dress rehearsal for your big performance. Great artists have everything worked out before they start.
