Rotors that have been marred up by brake pads can be turned on a machine and made like new. You can only have them turned a few times until they are too thin to be considered safe. Usually this thickness is stamped on the rotor.
Yes you can replace your brake pads but it would be cheaper if you wait until you need a new rotor. I recommended waiting because its way better than replacing it before you need a new rotor.

Sounds like you didn't have the rotors turned when you replaced the pads. Either have the rotors turned down, or replace them with new ones and the shaking will stop. Also make sure there is nothing between the rotor and the hub, this would cause a problem as well.
Have you had a front-end alignment? When you remove parts from the front end, you need to have this done.
If you feel pulsating, shudder, or vibrating, when you come to a stop, your rotors are warped. Remove the rotor and take it to a machine shop and see if it can be turned and resurfaced. Usually this can be done one time unless the rotor is badly damaged. The machine shop will determine if it can be resurfaced. If not, you will need to purchase a new rotor. Make sure to replace the brake pads even if they look good when replacing or resurfacing the rotor.
