I have to number my measures for solo and ensemble and I wasn't sure if you would do a pickup note as measure 1 or the first full measure as 1.

I don't know. When I did the Mozart Concerto k622 mvt. 1 for solo and ensemble contest a few months ago, I started numbering at the first measure that I came in, but I was also able to tell the judge when I handed it to her.

Pickup notes do not constitute a measure. The first full measure AFTER the pickup(s) is no. 1

They can go either way. Rodgers' and Hammerstein's Cinderella starts the pickups in bar one. I also found some published clarinet quartets where the pickups start in bar zero. As long as everyone who needs to know knows the system, it doesn't matter.

Some publishers are better than others.
If the opening segment has rests before the pickup, and the total of the rests and the notes equals a measure...then you have a measure.
Otherwise it does not count as a measure. Just because someone has published a mistake doesn't mean that it is correct.

PS...good luck with your peformance!

Interestingly, Finale handles pick up measures by numbering the "pick up bar" as #1, then the first full bar as "1" ...
Without music, the world would be grey, very grey.

This is one of the questions in the RCM's theory exam. We're supposed to know that the first FULL measure is #1 but the RCM throws it in to see who gets tripped up.
