Acid Catalyzed Esterification

Adding Acetic anhydride (C4H6O3) to Vanillin (C8H8O3) with H2SO4.
Does anyone know what the balanced equation would look like? I know the product is supposed to be C12H14O6 but I'm not exactly sure for the equation.

Could it be C4H6O3 + C8H8O3 + H2SO4 = C12H14O6 + H2SO4 ?
