In your sumo, you raise your hips before the bar even leaves the floor. Work on your foot positioning to try and get as close to the bar as your body will allow. The goal is for your hips and bar to rise together and then lockout, try to imagine falling backwards while standing up with the weight in your hand. That should help keep you a bit more upright and allow your hips to do their thang. Someone will probably shit on me for saying this but you want your knees to lockout before your back does in the sumo.
With all that said, you look like you're built to pull conventional, so if you aspire to compete keep the sumo as a deadlift accessory and whatnot. Otherwise do your thing.
Additionally are those running shoes? You will be better off deadlifting barefoot or with some type of hard thin soled shoe. Think converse or some of these
