Easy way to get images

Hi, I’m new to wordpress and I’m developing a theme for a CSS blog I’m creating, is there a simple way of inserting images into the theme?

Right now I have to enter
<img src=”wp-content\themes\themename\images\logo.png” alt=”logo” width=”273″ height=”86″ id=”logo”>

Is there a way I could get the path shorter, such as <img src=”images/logo.png”>?

Thankyou
