How do I sync a second iphone on my computer without getting files/contacts/phone numbers from the first phone?

How do I sync a second iphone to itunes and be able to sync a new iphone when it is purchased. I have a iphone 6 already synced, but this second iphone has completely different (wife's phone) information on it and we don't want to mix the two phone's information.
