You boyfriend loves you alot and says that because that is what he sees in you. Don't doubt yourself. I don't know you but you really have to believe in yourself. Don't worry what other people say about you as long as you think the same way. If your boyfriend says you beautiful then believe it because he is there for you and whats whats best for you. When people say something bad to you or even about you don't take what they are saying in the wrong way. Just don't think about it. You just have to believe in YOURSELF and that's all that counts.
Hope I helped.
if you need anything else please let me know.

We generally use mirrors because we're looking for flaws to correct - hair, makeup, how's-my-outfit, etc. - so we focus on those flaws and fail to see our good points. And as far as pictures and video, cameras happen to be great at picking up and highlighting every little imperfection we all have. There's a reason why models and actors use buckets of makeup!
Your boyfriend, and other people around you, see you as you really are. They're not looking for flaws (and if they were, you would need new friends!) And what your boyfriend sees is beautiful. Sure, be may be seeing you through a haze of being-in-love, but that's hardly a bad thing!
So, take his compliments at face value. Sure, if you wanted to be technical about it, you are probably not the most physically ideal girl he's ever seen. But he's not just looking at the physical; he sees the surface beauty AND he sees the person beneath it, and that's what makes up the total package, which really IS the most beautiful girl he's ever seen. Your physical features, which were likely attractive to him to begin with, become more so because he associates them with someone he likes a whole lot.
Whatever you do, when he compliments you like that, DON'T deny it. If you do that too often, he'll eventually stop complimenting you on your appearance or anything else. That'll be the beginning of the end of your relationship.
What do you tell him? Tell him, "Thank you, you're so sweet." Accept his compliments graciously. Or, if you want to test his sincerity, ask him (with a smile) what about you he finds particularly attractive. If he means what he's saying, he should be able to come up with answers.
