Rails 4 + Postrges Heroku: How can I clear all the data for a specific model?

I am using Heroku postgresql with my Rails 4 app.

My app has a Photo model which currently has 100 photos. I want to start over, deleting all of the existing photos so that the next uploaded photo will have photo_id: 1.

I found this answer but it appears that this would reset the entire database (meaning that all of my models would be reset instead of just the Photo model)?

You can access to heroku rails console and run:

Photo.destroy_all
ActiveRecord::Base.connection.execute("TRUNCATE table_name RESTART IDENTITY")

table_name is name of table which stores photos.
