Google can remotely install arbitrary applications on your phone, so of course it can access videos and photos if it wants to.

Yes? How do you think the web interface for google play works?
As long as you have gapps installed, Google can install any app they want on your phone or run any bit of code they want.
do they store your stuff in their servers?
