Allowing editor to update image

Using Umbraco And Getting Started

Umbraco 8
Hello All, I need some help adding images to my site,

I have I doctype where the editor can select an image and that doctype has a template with code similar to the code below:
```
<img src="@Model.Value("imageAlias").Url()">
```
this does not work..... I get a compilation error saying there is no method for Url

But when I use this:
```
@{
       var firstBlockImage = Umbraco.Media(Guid.Parse(imageid));


      var firstBlockImageUrl = firstBlockImage.Url();
}
<img src="@ firstBlockImageUrl" />
```
it obviously works, but this is static and not very efficient,

I want the editor to select an image they want and it will update accordingly,

I'm an intern dev in need of help :\
