You can iterate through the pages and call the items needed

iterator=self.bucket.list_blobs()        

self.get_files=[]        
for page in iterator.pages:
    print('    Page number: %d' % (iterator.page_number,))
    print('  Items in page: %d' % (page.num_items,))
    print('     First item: %r' % (next(page),))
    print('Items remaining: %d' % (page.remaining,))
    print('Next page token: %s' % (iterator.next_page_token,))        
    for f in page:
        self.get_files.append("gs://" + f.bucket.name + "/" + f.name)

print( "Found %d results" % (len( self.get_files)))
