We develop a star-product scheme of symbols defined by the normally ordered powers of the creation and annihilation photon operators, (a\dag)^m a^n. The corresponding phase space is a two-dimensional lattice with nodes (m,n) given by pairs of nonnegative integers. The star-product kernel of symbols on the lattice and intertwining kernels to other schemes are found in explicit form. Analysis of peculiar properties of the star-product kernel results in new sum relations for factorials. Advantages of the developed star-product scheme for describing dynamics of quantum systems are discussed and time evolution equations in terms of the ordered moments are derived.
