Definitely, promote yourself, especially cuz Vin is very talented. Just need to remember that at times there might be a fine line when it comes to promotion. It's society now though, 1-2 pictures is what it seems that people have the patience to go through. Case in point, you put up one really nice photo on social media and I'm sure it'll get a lot of comments/likes. Put up a dozen or more and it's more likely to be ignored.
I know myself personally if I see a friend put up a nice snapshot while they're on vacation or a family portrait I'll take the time to comment or hit like. When someone else puts up 148 pictures of their trip to Orlando, it gets a pass from me.
One thing that might help is to expand your exposure on multiple avenues of social media if you're going that way. Some people are Facebook only, some are solely Instagram. Others are all social media. It might be more work but don't limit yourself to one way of promoting, do them all.
