    NSFileManager *fm = [NSFileManager defaultManager];
    NSString *directory = [[self documentsDirectory] stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"Photos/"];
    NSError *error = nil;
    for (NSString *file in [fm contentsOfDirectoryAtPath:directory error:&error]) {
        BOOL success = [fm removeItemAtPath:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@%@", directory, file] error:&error];
        if (!success || error) {
            // it failed.
        }
    }
    

    I leave it up to you to do something useful with the error if it exists.
