Most of the portrait photographers use to see in the shop used 5D bodies. I'm guessing full frame in a body not as heavy as the 1D is a factor. I take it these will be used just for the non-birding? Full frame isn't the best for tele work.
The 1D series stuff has a massive pro following.
It's a shame you're in the Canon system (I'll prob get shot down in flames by Canon owners for that one), BUT the Nikon D3 would satisfy both full frame portrait work, and with high speed cropped mode, ideal for tele birding shots.
