Should I become a vampire or be partially soul trapped?

The best thing is to NOT become a Vampire Lord at this point in time, if playing as a Dawnguard. You will still be able to talk to Serana and have her make you a vampire lord later in the game, so it's best to wait until you have finished all the Dawnguard sidequests. So for now, you should opt to become Soul Trapped.
