TgBot::Message::Ptr message has all of the things that you mentioned (video, photo, voice, etc). Tou can access it by message->photo, for example. If you want to check what is present, you can check what is empty.

You can check it here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/32679930. The API calls that are mentioned there are implemented as methods in this library.
