Thanks!
I have additional pics from different angles if it would help with the ID, just let me know and we'll see if I have what you need.

Yes
You might want to add a lateral or dorsal shot to show more of the abdomen. An expert might want to see more of some other features. Take a look at some of the images from the east coast, that have already been identified.
Start with the images of Diogmites neoternatus. (constricted abdomen) I believe that your's is a female.

Abdomen shot
I added another shot that includes more of the abdomen.

Diogmites neoternatus looks good.
