You have the correct genus, this is definitely an Araneus Sp. I think she is most likely to be Araneus gemmoides, a Cat-faced Spider. If you view her dorsal surface with her head at the top, the angulate projections (humps) are the “ears” of the cat face. The main visible difference between Araneus gemmoides and A. diadematus is the white stripe behind the head. One your spider it has two V marks that it crosses through. A. diadematus has one like: that it crosses through.
