Do change of energy of photons create force of acceleration of big mass when they fall to it?

Sorry, I don’t understand. Can you explain the question some more?

Are clocks slowed by energy-momentum tensor there where momentum of falling photon is increased by the energy -momentum tensor?

The energy-momentum tensor remains the same (more precisely: covariant) regardless of the state of relative motion of your test particle. 
Also, remember that GR is a purely classical theory, so strictly speaking it has no concept of photons - it would be more correct to speak either of an electromagnetic field, or of null dust. Either way, the energy-momentum tensor is always covariant.
