You'll want to properly burnish the pads. Get them hot enough to be smoking by accelerating and braking at about 70% pressure (NO ABS); that smoke is the resins from production burning off. Maintain that temperature until it stops smoking, and then let it evenly cool down. Highway driving is best; you don't want to come to a stop or drive at low speeds while cooling.
Once you do this, the noise should be minimal, and only manifest at low speed low pressure stops.
If you are using brake temp paint, you need green and orange to be oxidized. Pink/red doesn't need to be.
If you're boiling your fluid doing this, either you need a higher grade fluid, or you're inadvertently getting ABS intervention, or possibly both.
Your rotors look good, but if your pads smoked both times you went to burnish them, then they're probably not done burnishing.
Expect judder during the burnishing process.
