pretty = 이쁘다, 예쁘다 (same meaning)
Beautiful = 아름답다.
1. you are so beautiful = 당신 참 아름다워요
2. you are so pretty = 당신 참 예뻐요 (이뻐요 also ok)
It's almost same.
When you like picture, you will say "와... 이 그림 정말 예쁘다' (wow this picture is really pretty) or "와.. 이 그림 정말 아름답다' (wow this picture is really beautiful)
Both will be OK.
But in case of baby, it would be a little strange if you say "와~~ 이 아기 정말 아름답다" (Wow This baby is really beautiful), I guess english is also same.
In case of above, "와~ 이 아기 정말 이쁘다" (wow this baby is really pretty) will be more natural.
Because "이쁘다" " 예쁘다" (pretty) has some meaning of "cute" i think.
'아름답다" (Beautiful) has...well...sort of mature feeling? just my opinion. ^__^
