iPhone restore

I reseted my iPhone by accident and I signed into my iCloud but none of my photos/messages and apps saved besides my contacts, I believe they weren't backed up. Is there any way I can get them back?

iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 13

The most important thing here is that we do not know how you reset your iPhone. Did you erase all your photos etc. first before resetting? To answer your question, if your photos are not on iCloud then there is nothing to recover from there. Same thing with messages. Do you have a computer backup that may have created? If YES then you can restore from there. If NOT then I am afraid you have nothing to rely on.
