I like this picture a lot. I can also see your reflection in the sunglasses, taking the picture. However, in this case I feel you have perhaps crossed the very fine line separating a "self-portrait" from an optical reflection of oneself. Accentuating this is the face of the pretty, pretty girl that is so dominant in this picture. As such, I would consider this image more a portrait of her than of anyone else. Yet, this is only MHO. What constitutes a self-portrait is not easily defined - this is an excellent example of the ambiguity involved. As I have already said, it's a very nice picture generally speaking.
