What is the QED LSZ-reduction formula?

For a phi-four theory the LSZ reduction formula, as stated in peskin and schroeder essentially boils down to

$$\langle \vec{p'_1},\vec{p'_2}, \ldots ,\vec{p'_m}| S| \vec{p_1}, \vec{p_2}, \ldots, \vec{p_n}\rangle = Z^{(n+m)/2} \mathcal{M}_{\text{on shell}}$$

where we have n incoming and m outgoing particles and $\mathcal M$ is the amputated amplitude for the physical process. I know LSZ-reduction also exist for photons and electrons, and that there it is related to the field strength renormalization factors $Z_2$ and $Z_3$. I know that Srednicki writes about this, but he uses quite another approach than peskin and schroeder. So what is the corresponding formula for a QED process? For two would it for example be correct to write

$$\langle \vec{k_1}, \vec{k_2}|S |\vec{p_1}, \vec{p_1}\rangle = Z_2 Z_3 \mathcal{M}_{\text{on shell}}$$

for a process involving two outgoing photons with k-momenta and two incoming electrons with p-momenta?

Yes.
