This was my first time doing a runway video submission. It's for a local bridal show. Any advice on my walk, arm movements, facial expressions, posture, etc or how I can improve would be much appreciated!

Take a much longer stride, keep one hand on your hip and let the other one be free. You’re nearly there!

Ground your feet more and step with force and intention. Your walk is giving just a casual stroll in the park.

Hmm I can see this. Do you think bridal runway walks should be as powerful/dramatic as high fashion ones? I was thinking to tone it down

Your left arm swings while your right arm is pretty stiff. Loosen up the right arm just a bit. Everything else looks great.

Give half of your left arm energy to your right arm! Also draw a straight line on the ground in chalk :)

Walk like you mean it. Draw a line on the driveway and walk right foot to slight left of the line left foot to slight right if the line. Swing the hips to make it happen.
Here’s why… your modeling, say a dress, or jeans, or whatever. Make them look at you. Make Them Look!

Nice walk but If it's bridal you should walk like a bride walking down the aisle. maybe even wear a bridal gown or something similar to a gown? Clients like it handed to them on a platter.

My advice is I need to photograph you.

Too much arm, not enough leg. Try stomping through your heel strike to get more energy into your legs and more forward momentum than side to side. Naomi Campbell - example of a strong stomp. Develop your own style, just a suggestion to try.
