Below are two examples that should help you on your way.  See the
documentation for org-latex-classes for an explanation of
[NO-DEFAULT-PACKAGES], etc., which you might or might not want to use.

You can put the (add-to-list ...) functions in your .emacs so they are
always available, or you can call one of the source code blocks from a
buffer you want to export.  I find it convenient to do this:

#Local Variables
# eval: (org-sbe "koma-article-palatino")

You'll also need to specify the LaTeX class in the buffer you want to export:
#+LATEX_CLASS: koma-article-palatino
