Weird braking problem

So hoping someone can help me with this. Just started two or three days ago. When braking, usually under 15mph, I'm feeling a shudder in the brakes. No steering pull, no vibration in the pedal, it's more like feeling it through the frame. I can only describe it like the brake pad feels like it's "skipping" over the rotor. The rotor shows no visible issues. Rotors are drilled and slotted, brakes were done last year. Braking force feels good (it stops just fine).

Nothing really above 15mph. If I'm gentle on the braking, it doesn't happen at all. If I'm a little more aggressive, I'm getting the sensation that the passenger side front brakes are skipping. Tires appear fine, no other vibrations or pulls at any other speed or turning condition.

Any ideas where to start?
